| Popis: | The desire to reproduce is one of the strongest human instincts. Many men and women in our society may experience situations that compromise their future fertility. The past several decades have seen an explosion of technologies that have changed the historical limitations regarding fertility preservation. This review offers an overview of the state of the art within fertility preservation including surgical and medical interventions and therapies that necessitate the need for cryopreservation of eggs, sperm, and embryos. The review also addresses the psychological consequences of banking/not banking materials among patients in need of fertility preservation, particularly in the oncofertility context. |
