Cancer treatments can adversely impact a patient's ability to have children. And when the patient finds out, it's often too late.
HCG, one of India's leading cancer care specialists and Milann – India’s leading chain of fertility clinics are joining forces and taking the #PledgeToPreserveFertility to raise awareness so people diagnosed with cancer can make informed choices to preserve their fertility, before they begin cancer treatments.
HCG & Milann Fertility Center have come together to #CloseTheCareGap by taking a pledge to:
Milann will provide fertility preservation counselling services to all cancer patients but that's not all, they will also offer the first year of cryopreservation services free for any patient who is about to undergo cancer treatment.
If you know someone who is diagnosed with cancer, let them know that they can take steps to preserve their fertility before they begin cancer treatment.
Ask them to address the issue with their Oncologist and a Fertility expert before they begin their treatment.
You can direct them to this page or download and share these resources with them.
If you or someone you know would like to speak to an expert regarding fertility preservation options, book an appointment with an expert today.
For over 33 years, Milann has been among the leaders in Fertility and IVF treatments. We've been using fertility preservation techniques not just for those diagnosed with cancer, but also for those who might want to wait a little longer before having children. With state-of-the-art technology and processes, fertility preservation is a normal, common and sensible thing to do these days.
Depending on age, gender and type of cancer and treatment there will be many options before the patient. The most common fertility preservation methods for include:
Ideal for girls who haven't hit puberty yet. The patient's ovarian tissue is surgically removed and frozen. The thawed tissue is reimplanted in her body when she is cancer free, or when she is ready to have children.
In this process, the patient's semen sample is taken and cleaned, after which it is frozen or cryopreserved to preserve its quality, for use at a later date.
In this process, the female patient is given fertility medications to boost the number of eggs produced. These eggs are then collected, cleaned and assessed for quality. The best eggs are then frozen for preservation, to be used at a later date.
In this process, the female patient's eggs and the male patient's eggs are collected and cleaned. The best samples from both the eggs and sperm are then fused to create healthy embryos. This embryo can then be implanted in the woman's body or frozen to use at a later date.
Milann is deeply committed to helping oncologists, hospitals and patients diagnosed with cancer get the resources, advice and help they need for fertility preservation.
In light of World Cancer Day's theme of closing the care gap, Milann will offer patients diagnosed with cancer the benefit of the first year of cryopreservation free.
