Oocyte cryopreservation - the best way to preserve your fertility.
Why
should I do Oocyte cryopreservation as soon as possible?
Egg Quality
A.
Limited number of oocytes
As
acknowledged female reproduction system, no additional primary oocytes are
created when the oogenesis is complete, before or shortly after birth. The
amount of oocyte decreases with the increasing age.On average, there are around
1,000,000 oocytes in each ovary. And around 500 oocytes would be released from
menophania (first sign of the menses) to menopause (permanent cessation of the
menses). The unreleased oocytes are degenerated in the follicular phase of each
menstrual cycle.
B.
The Chromosomal abnormalities increases with the age
The
aneuploid rate (abnormal chromosome rate) increases with the age. It is 25% in
the 30-year-old oocytes, however, it rises to 50~70% in the 40-year-old
oocytes.
The Age of Ovaries

How
about the function of the ovaries?

Notes: It
is better to triplicate the hormone test to verify the values. If you did the
ovarian surgery before or have endometriosis, the AMH and FSH values would be
affected.
The
antral follicle count (AFC) represents the generated follicle number of this
cycle.
Procedure
Evaluation: Ovarian
function test, such as AMH, FSH, AFC...etc
Stimulation: Ovarian
stimulation by recombinant hormone starts from day 3 of a cycle, and the used
protocol is determined by the AFC and hormone baselines of this cycle.
Sonogram: Transvaginal
ultrasound to monitor the growing follicle
Hormone: LH,
P4, progesterone to monitor the status of inner oocyte
Trigger: induce
the oocyte maturation and subsequent ovulation
OPU: oocyte-pick-up
surgery; it would take 10 to 15 mins depending on the follicle amount; it would
take nearly 1.5 hours for post-operation recovery
Another
cycle: the next menses would come
after one to two weeks from OPU day.
The used protocol is determined by the AFC, hormone baselines, and ovarian function of this cycle.

Freezing Technique
We
use vitrification (fast-freezing) to
cryopreserve the mature oocytes (MII oocyte).
