Breast Cancer and IVF
 | Eggs are harvested for safekeeping in advance of cancer treatments, and reimplanted in an IVF procedure when the patient's cancer is in remission. |
Testicular Tissue Freezing
 | While mature men can preserve fertility by sperm freezing, the only option in male children is testicular tissue freezing. At IFP, we offer this experimental option for children undergoing chemotherapy. |
Ovarian Cryopreservation
 | This technique does not require ovarian stimulation and can be performed in children and adults with short notice. IFP's experience is unmatched, as Dr Oktay performed the first procedures in the world. |
Infertility Treatments after Cancer
 | Cancer patients who developed infertility after cancer have different needs compared to other infertile women. At IFP, we offer innovative infertility treatments geared towards cancer survivors. |
Fertility Preservation in Children
 | Chemotherapy treatments and other conditions such as Turner's and galactosemia can threaten the future fertility of children. |
Egg Freezing
 | Oocyte freezing has come a long way. Our research shows that current success rates have approached to that of standard IVF procedures. When fertility is under threat in single women and adolescents, this is a useful strategy to preserve fertility. |
