Fertility Preservation in Kolkata — Options Before Cancer or Other Medical Treatment
Some medical treatments, such as chemotherapy, radiation or certain surgeries, can affect future fertility. Fertility preservation may offer a way to store eggs, sperm or embryos before treatment begins, although it does not guarantee a future pregnancy. At Maatritva IVF in Newtown, we coordinate with your oncologist to plan preservation where it is medically appropriate — often starting within 2–3 days of your first consultation.

What is Fertility Preservation in Kolkata?
Fertility preservation refers to freezing eggs, sperm, or embryos before medical treatment (chemotherapy, radiation, surgery) that may damage reproductive function. Eggs, sperm or embryos are vitrified and stored in liquid nitrogen at -196°C for later use in IVF/ICSI, within the storage periods permitted under Indian ART regulations.
Who Needs This?
Fertility preservation may be considered for cancer patients about to begin chemotherapy or pelvic radiation, women requiring ovarian surgery that reduces egg reserve, patients receiving gonadotoxic therapy for autoimmune conditions like Lupus, transgender individuals before hormone therapy, and anyone who wishes to protect fertility before medical treatment.
