Male Cryopreservation

Male sperm cryopreservation is a medical procedure intended to preserve male reproductive cells, and sperm, for later use. It’s an advanced technique where a man can store his sperm at extremely low temperatures and be guaranteed that it would remain viable. This technique is highly recommended for patients who may be subjected to treatments or conditions that might damage their fertility, as well as those who may delay having children due to personal or professional reasons.

Some Vital Risks and Limitations of Sperm Cryopreservation

While sperm cryopreservation is one of the more reliable and commonly performed procedures, it is helpful to know that there are a few risks and limitations:

  • Damage During Freezing: There is a minimal percentage of sperm that may not survive in the freezing/thawing process.
  • Storage Duration: Storage may last hundreds of years but the quality depends on storage facility conditions.
  • Cost Factors: One of the expenses that may worry some people is long-term storage fees.
  • Medical Eligibility: Not all men will have available viable sperm samples that are amenable to cryopreservation.

Dr. Kamaraj Hospital ensures this risk with state-of-the-art cryopreservation techniques and stringent quality control measures.
