What Oncofertility options are available?
There are numerous options available for you to get over with the problem of infertility after dealing with cancer. Some are time-taking while some show results in a short span of time. Let’s have a look at the following fertility preservation options:
- Egg freezing: Also known as Oocyte Cryopreservation, it is a 2-6 weeks process in which the woman’s eggs are being stored with a sperm for the purpose of future fertilization when she will meet her future partner.
- Sperm banking: The process to store the sperms from the semen is known as sperm banking. The sperms will be kept at a temperature of minus 196 degrees in liquid nitrogen.
- Embryo freezing: In this process, the embryo of the woman is being frozen and implanted with that of her partner’s sperm after the harvesting, fertilization and maturation of the ovaries at a very low temperature. This process usually takes time of 2-6 weeks.
- Ovarian tissue freezing: The ovaries of the woman are safely taken out through surgery in order to prevent them from the impact of harmful radiations emerged in this process.
- Donor eggs: In this process, the donor is hormonally stimulated in order to mature multiple eggs which are later harvested and fertilized by the sperm of the patient’s male partner to form embryos. Later, these embryos are transferred in the uterus of the patient which will lead to pregnancy.
- Modified cancer treatments: Nowadays there are extremely modified cancer treatments that do not leave side effects after the treatment is being done. However, you need to seek an expert’s advice for it.
If you are finding any of these symptoms, then consulting a gynecologist is seriously recommended. Get the best IVF treatment in Mumbai at IVF spring fertility center by our certified gynecologists and embryologists. They will guide and advise you according to your problem.
Causes of Pelvic Adhesions:
If you have gone through any surgery at the abdominal or vaginal area in the past, then this may cause pelvic adhesion. The factors that are responsible for this pelvic adhesive disease are as follows:
- Infection through appendicitis
- Endometriosis i.e. tissue formed outside the uterus, causing pain during menstruation
- Surgery at the pelvic area
- Surgery on ovaries, fallopian tubes, and cervix
- Inflammation of the pelvic area
Diagnosis of Pelvic Adhesion
To diagnose a pelvic adhesion is usually difficult. However, our doctors at IVF spring suggest you undergo laparoscopy. It is a process where our doctors will insert a narrow fiber-optic tube near your navel which will allow them to view the adhesions present in the abdominal cavity if any. This surgery will show the clear picture of the pelvic cavity and the adhesions present in it so as to cure it further.
Treatment of Pelvic Adhesion
On the basis of the cause of the disease, our doctors will recommend you to undergo treatment accordingly. If the damage is minor then it can be cured by medications. Surgery is the common treatment that is often suggested. This surgery is minimally-invasive and will let you heal quickly. Sometimes IVF (In vitro Fertilisation) treatment is also recommended to cure these adhesions.
