In this presentation we will explore the science and the facts behind preserving fertility through egg freezing, IVF, and fertility options for same sex couples.
We ask why egg freezing might be a good idea, who should (and should not) consider it, what you’d have to do and how well it might work. We will also end with a look into the future of fertility medicine.

Who should attend?

This talk is suitable for anyone thinking of starting a family or wants to know more about fertility and fertility preservation; it covers male and female fertility factors.

You will hear evidence-based information in a friendly setting, with an opportunity to ask questions. Lunch is provided.
