Social Freezing

"Social freezing" is a topic that has gained increasing relevance in recent years, sparking debates and discussions about its validity, ethical considerations, and social impact.

​

The world we live in is constantly evolving, as are the rhythms of life and the social choices that result from it.

​

Perhaps you, too, have the desire to explore the world, obtain a degree, advance in the career you have chosen without having to make sacrifices, or simply wait for the perfect moment with the right person to start a family.

​

Choosing social freezing, the cryopreservation of ova for potential future use, can be a solution to postpone motherhood to the most appropriate time for you, when you feel ready, if you ever do.

​

By resorting to social freezing, women can preserve some of their ova to plan pregnancy when they deem it suitable according to their life choices or to preserve their fertility before undergoing invasive medical treatments, usually at an oncological level. The procedure allows the preservation of healthy ova, offering the possibility of eventually resorting to assisted reproduction in the future.

​

The cryopreservation process takes place in our highly specialized IVF laboratory, located in Lugano, which ensures high safety standards and adopts the most advanced technology for ova preservation. Research has shown that cryopreserved ova have success rates comparable to fresh ones in in vitro fertilization procedures, especially with better quality ova from younger women.
