Background of IVF

Test tube baby is a method for couples who cannot conceive naturally to achieve fertility through assisted reproductive technology. In the world, more and more people choose IVF technology to overcome fertility difficulties, including some couples with cancer. When one of the couples is diagnosed with cancer, treatment may affect fertility. However, by using cryopreserved sperm or eggs, these couples can give themselves a chance to have a baby after the treatment is controlled.

Cryopreservation before cancer treatment

Cancer treatment usually includes chemotherapy, radiotherapy and surgery. These treatments may cause damage to the human reproductive system, thereby reducing the chance of pregnancy. Therefore, before starting cancer treatment, doctors will advise patients to consider freezing eggs or sperm for future use in IVF.

The freezing process before cancer treatment is very critical. In women, doctors will stimulate the ovary by giving ovulation promoting drugs to make the ovary produce more eggs. These eggs will be extracted and frozen. In men, doctors collect semen samples and freeze them.

Cryopreserved eggs or sperm can be thawed and used at any time after the completion of cancer treatment, providing patients with the opportunity to achieve fertility.

Application of assisted reproductive technology

When ready to become pregnant, patients can seek assistance from assisted reproductive technology (ART). ART usually includes in vitro fertilization (IVF) and embryo transfer. During IVF, eggs and sperm are combined in the laboratory to form embryos, and then the embryos are transferred into the female uterus. This technology has greatly improved the success rate of IVF.

For cancer patients, IVF and embryo transfer can be the methods to achieve fertility after they recover. Cryopreserved eggs or sperm play a key role in this process, providing patients with the opportunity to conceive.

Organization of Cancer IVF

Many internationally renowned medical institutions provide cancer IVF services. For example, Massachusetts General Hospital in the United States provides freezing and storage services for sperm and eggs of cancer patients. Sydney City Hospital, located in Australia, also enjoys a high reputation in assisted reproductive technology.

These institutions have world-class equipment and professional teams, which can provide quality IVF services for cancer patients. They strictly follow international standards and ethical principles, ensure that all operations are safe and reliable, and maximize the success rate of IVF.

Summary

The birth of cancer test tube baby is achieved by freezing eggs or sperm, combined with the application of assisted reproductive technology. The purpose of cryopreservation before cancer treatment is to protect the fertility of patients and enable them to achieve fertility after treatment. Assisted reproductive technology provides a method for cancer patients to achieve fertility after recovery, while some well-known medical institutions provide professional cancer IVF services. Through these methods and institutions, more and more cancer couples can realize their reproductive dreams.
