Plan for Life after Cancer with Fertility Preservation

Before beginning cancer treatment or drug therapy for chronic diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, talk with Dr. Jim Douglas with IVF Plano about the proactive steps you can take now to protect your future with fertility preservation. 

Anyone facing chemotherapy or radiation treatment will benefit from the peace of mind that fertility preservation delivers. Once treatment ends and the battle is won, life will resume with your fertility intact.

Why freeze your eggs?
Certain cancer treatments such as surgery, radiation and chemotherapy impact the ovaries or testes and gametes (sperm and eggs). Tragically, the gonadotoxic agents in chemo and radiation can cause sterility.

Even if you’ve already begun treatments, reproductive endocrinologist Dr. Douglas will collaborate with your oncologist or physician to provide seamless care so you can tackle your treatment while regaining control of your reproductive health.

Established and leading edge therapies provided by IVF Plano include:

• Oocyte (egg) retrieval
• Oocyte cryopreservation
• In-vitro fertilization (IVF) to fertilize and implant frozen eggs

We prioritize your call to IVF Plano and will quickly arrange a consultation with compassionate and skilled surgeon Dr. Douglas. Even if you had not considered when or if to have children, fertility preservation takes eggs, sperm and/or reproductive tissue out of harm’s way until you decide to start a family.
