 Program To Freeze Women's Ovaries To Preserve Fertility After Cancer Program To Freeze Women's Ovaries To Preserve Fertility After Cancer Northwestern University is launching an experimental program for young women who may be at risk to lose their ovarian function and fertility following treatment for cancer. In the program, a woman's ovary is removed and frozen for possible future use. The long-term goal is to be able to extract and mature eggs from cryopreserved (frozen) ovarian tissues to initiate pregnancies once cancer treatment has been completed. Thus far, pregnancies resulting from this research are in mice.        |
