In today’s world, women are taking control of their reproductive choices like never before. Whether it's focusing on career, education, personal goals, or managing medical conditions like endometriosis or cancer, having the ability to delay parenthood while keeping fertility options open is empowering. At Ekam Fertility, we provide advanced egg freezing, embryo preservation, and sperm freezing services to support your journey—on your timeline.

Understanding Egg Freezing (Oocyte Freezing)

Egg freezing, also known as oocyte freezing, is a proven technique that allows women to preserve their fertility for future use. The process involves retrieving eggs from the ovaries, carefully freezing them in a laboratory, and storing them until the woman is ready to conceive. This procedure is especially beneficial for women in their late 20s to early 30s when primary oocyte quality is optimal. By freezing your eggs at this stage, you significantly increase your chances of a healthy pregnancy later in life.

At Ekam Fertility, we utilize the latest vitrification techniques, which involve ultra-rapid cooling of eggs to prevent the formation of ice crystals. This protects the cellular structure of each primary oocyte and helps preserve its viability during the thawing process. Whether you’re doing this as a proactive step or due to medical necessity, oocyte freezing is a reliable solution to safeguard your reproductive potential.

Embryo Preservation: For Those Ready to Fertilize and Freeze

While egg freezing is ideal for women who wish to delay pregnancy without a current partner, embryo preservation is often chosen by couples or individuals undergoing IVF. In this process, the egg is fertilized with sperm to create an embryo, which is then cryopreserved for future implantation.

Embryo freezing is particularly helpful for couples undergoing fertility treatments or individuals preparing for medical procedures such as chemotherapy that could affect their fertility. Since embryo freezing offers higher survival and implantation rates compared to egg freezing, many couples consider it a secure option for family planning.

Our highly skilled embryologists at Ekam Fertility handle each embryo preservation case with precision and compassion. Each embryo is stored under strict temperature-controlled conditions to ensure optimal quality when you’re ready to move forward with your pregnancy.

Sperm Freezing: Preserving Fatherhood

Fertility preservation isn’t just for women. At Ekam Fertility, we also offer sperm freezing—a vital service for men who may be facing medical treatments, working in high-risk professions, or simply wish to delay parenthood. Just like eggs and embryos, sperm can be cryopreserved and stored for future use in IVF or IUI procedures.

Sperm freezing works exceptionally well in combination with embryo preservation, giving couples complete flexibility in their reproductive planning. Our lab follows rigorous protocols to ensure that sperm samples remain viable and effective, even after years of storage.

Most people I've seen have used food-safe 5 gallon buckets or huge glass jars, but being thrifty (i.e. broke), I took a look through the recyclable dumpster in my alley and found an alternative--those big, wide-mouth plastic jugs that protein powder and other supplements come in.

I kept my eye out and have gathered a small collection that can hold 1-2 dozen eggs depending on size. So after washing thoroughly, I carefully add the clean, fresh eggs.

Then I mix up the solution of pickling lime and distilled water at a rate of 1 ounce per quart. I have a special quart milk jug set aside for this, both to mix up the solution and to store any leftovers.

Pour the solution into the jug so that it's about 1 inch above the eggs.

Now since these recycled jugs aren't meant to be liquid-tight, I put some clingfilm over the top before screwing on the lid and labeling. The jugs get stored on a shelf in the basement in the dark and relative cool.

If things go alright, these eggs should keep perfectly fresh for up to a year or so, needing just a quick rinse of the shell before using. If things go wrong and one of the eggs had a crack, then it will rot and spoil the entire jug, but I will only have lost 1-2 dozen eggs instead of the many dozen in a 5 gallon bucket.

An alternative option in fertility preservation is Egg Preservation. Egg freezing is also known as mature acolyte cryopreservation. It is a method used to save women's ability to get pregnant in the future. Egg preservation to use in future in vitro fertilization (IVF) procedures have high odds of implanting and creating a successful pregnancy.
