Sperm freezing

Sperm freezing is a procedure to preserve spermatozoa to be used successfully whenever needed. Spermatozoa are collected, frozen, and stored to retain fertility. The sperm sample remains in the freezer for a maximum of 10 years at a constant temperature of -196 degrees centigrade. Furthermore, sperm freezing is indicated if the husband will be gone on the day of ovulation or has trouble ejaculating owing to stress or if there is a medical cause (e.g., chemotherapy, cirrhosis surgery). Although the husband has sperm vial as a safety deposit, the fresh sample on the day of ovulation is more preferred when it is possible.
