Egg Freezing and Prodedures

Exciting new advances in the ability to successfully cryopreserve (freeze) human eggs has led to new work aimed at allowing for further advances in our ability to freeze and store such human eggs. World reknown scientists, physicians and cryobiologists have come together at the Fertility Institutes to offer patients with a variety of medical indications the ability to preserve their unfertilized eggs in a frozen state. Such frozen storage allows women the opportunity to potentially preserve their fertility by suspending their eggs in time, potentially allowing the fertility potential of the human egg to be freed of the hardships and decline in fertility that the natural aging process causes. We also offer those women in need of donor eggs the choice of frozen and available prescreened frozen eggs donated by young, volunteer University students.

FOR THOSE IN NEED OF DONOR EGGS, IT IS OUR HOPE THAT THIS NEW PROCESS WILL ELIMINATE THE CONCERN OVER DONOR AVAILABILITY BY OBTAINING AND FREEZING A LARGE SELECTION OF DONOR EGGS FROM HIGHLY QUALIFIED UNIVERSITY DONORS. SUCH CRYOPRESERVATION ADDITIONALLY ADDS TO THE SAFETY OF EGG DONATION. WE HAVE RECEIVED RESEARCH FUNDING THAT ALLOWS US TO OFFER INVESTIGATIONALLY CRYOPRESERVED DONOR EGGS TO QUALIFIED RECIPIENTS AT A REDUCED CHARGE. IF INTERESTED, PLEASE CALL TODAY.

FOR YOUNG WOMEN SEEKING TO GUARD AND EXTEND THEIR FERTILITY, EGG FREEZING OFFERS PERHAPS THE GREATEST ADVANCE IN FERTILITY PRESERVATION IN THE HISTORY OF MODERN MEDICINE. EVRY DAY, MODERN INFORMED, FORWARD LOOKING WOMEN ARE HELPING ASSURE THEIR FUTURE FERTILITY POTENTIAL AT OUR CENTER. UNLIKE MANY UNPORVEN PROGRAMS OFFERING EGG FREEZING, THE FERTILITY INSTITUTES HAS BABIES BORN FOLLOWING OOCYTE CRYOPRESERVATION, WITH ADDITIONAL ONGOING PREGNANCIES IN PROGRESS. WE OFFER THE LOWEST PRICE ANYWHERE FOR THIS TECHNOLOGY THANKS TO INDUSTRY RESEARCH GRANTS WE HAVE RECEIVED THAT SUBSIDIZE THE COSTS OF SERVICES FOR ALL PATIENTS.

If you are under 32 years of age and are considering egg freezing as a way to guard your eggs for future fertility and are willing to appear on a national television news broadcast studying this exciting new technology, we may be able to offer you a PRICE REDUCTION OF AS MUCH AS 75%. This will require your being interviewed on a national news program that we are taping about our egg freezing program. If interested, please call today (818-728-4600) and ask to speak to our MEDIA CONSULTANT, JULIA about this very limited opportunity! Due to the high demand for this offer, we canot guarantee availability, but as of November, 2007, we do have opportunities available!

IN RECOGNITION OF THE OPINION OF THE AMERICAN SOCIETY FOR REPRODUCTIVE MEDICINE (ASRM) THAT OOCYTE CRYOPRESERVATION STILL BE DEEMED INVESTIGATIONAL, OUR CENTER OPERATES ALL OF IT'S EGG FREEZING PROTOCOLS UNDER AN APPROVED IRB RESERACH PROTOCOL. IT IS VITALLY IMPORTANT FOR THOSE CONSIDERING EGG CRYOPRESERVATION (FREEZING) TO ASSURE THAT A CENTER THAT THEY CHOOSE TO PROVIDE THESE SERVICES DOES SO UNDER THE OBSERVANT EYE OF SUCH AN "INSTITUTIONAL REVIEW BOARD (IRB)". THIS TERM INDICATES THAT ALL WORK ON THE FREEZING AND STORAGE OF EGGS IS DONE USING TECHNIQUES THAT ATEMPT TO ASSURE YOUR BEST CHANCES FOR SUCCESS AS WELL AS FOR THE LONG TERM SAFETY OF YOUR EGGS. THERE ARE CURRENT EGG FREEZING PROGRAMS IN THE U.S. THAT OPERATE WITH NO IRB APPROVAL OR OVERSIGHT. ASK ANY PROGRAM YOU MAY BE CONSIDERING TO PROVIDE YOU A COPY OF THEIR IRB APPROVAL CERTIFICATE TO ASSURE THAT YOUR EGGS ARE BEING HANDLED IN A MANNER APPROVED BY THE AMERICAN SOCIETY FOR REPRODUCTIVE MEDICINE. OUR CENTER HAS IRB APPROVAL AND OUR CERTIFICATE IS AVAILABLE UPON REQUEST.

WE CONCUR WITH SOME QUALIFICATIONS WITH THE CURRENT FERTILTY SOCIETY CONSENSUS THAT WOMEN SHOULD BE FULLY ADVISED THAT EGG FREEZING WHILE YOUNG MAY OR MAY NOT PROVIDE THEM AN ENHANCED CHANCE OF CONCEPTION IF THOSE PRESERVED EGGS ARE USED LATER IN LIFE. OUR EXPERIENCE THUS FAR WITH EGG FREEZING HAS BEEN EXCELLENT, AND WE REMAIN ENCOURAGED BY ONGOING PROGRESS IN THIS EXCITING AREA.
