Dr. Bandar Kutbi, a consultant for delayed childbearing, confirmed that there are several ways to preserve the fertility of cancer patients in light of the development of medicine, science and treatment.
He explained my books toNewspaper 24“There are many types of cancers that are discovered in early stages, and the cure rate is high, indicating that many have passed the stage of fear of the death of those with incurable diseases, with optimism about their recovery and their normal lives.”
He pointed out that one of the most important elements of quality of life is the ability to have children, while the problem lies in the fact that most types of radiation and chemical cancer treatments destroy the ability of men and women to have children in the future.
He revealed that the solution is to preserve fertility in many ways, as adult men save semen samples as much as possible, while non-adults cannot preserve them.
And between my books that immature girls can take samples from their ovaries and freeze them until they reach puberty and recover and then be used, in addition to the possibility of freezing eggs with the same mechanism of ICSI and IVF.
He stressed that the most common cancers are leukemia and breast cancer for women, and the cure rate is very high, while preserving and extracting eggs is a simple matter.
He explained that there are several obstacles that prevent samples from being preserved, most notably the failure to transfer cases from an oncologist to a specialist specialist in delayed childbearing, in addition to the high cost of the required procedures, which exceed the financial capacity of many patients.
