Frisco and Dallas area doctor describes the advantages of cryopreservation
The team at NTMIC Sperm Lab is available for patients who are concerned about their ability to conceive a child. Many services are accessible for men in Frisco and the greater Dallas area, including sperm banking, or “cryopreservation.”
Cryopreservation described
Cryopreservation is as a method of maintaining sperm through freezing. Freezing mobile sperm allows them to be used later as a method of conception. This method of saving and restoring sperm has been utilized for years and continues to be performed for families today.
Why cryopreservation?
There are many reasons a patient may consider cryopreservation of their sperm. Cryobanking may be performed before major medical procedures such as testicular surgery or a vasectomy, or before undergoing treatments such as chemotherapy or radiation therapy. Many medications and treatments may negatively impact one’s ability to produce sperm, so sperm banking is often considered as a way of preserving sperm for future use.
The process of donation
The idea of providing a specimen at the office may seem embarrassing or can be difficult for some patients to accomplish. Instead, we offer patients the chance to collect their sperm at home in one of our specimen collection cups. Because freezing the sperm at optimum density means following a strict timeline, it is essential that patients schedule their time to bank their sperm and understand that specimens must be collected in a timely manner to be viable following cryopreservation. Our team then freezes the sperm with state-of-the-art cryopreservation equipment.
