Why Egg Freezing is a ‘Must-Consider’ Step<br />
When Diagnosed with Cancer<br />

Hearing a cancer diagnosis feels like the ground slipping away. Suddenly, treatment plans, chemo schedules, and survival odds dominate every conversation. But for women of childbearing age, there’s another layer of heartbreak: the very treatments that save your life can take away your chance at motherhood later. That’s where egg freezing steps in as a beacon of hope, preserving your fertility before it’s too late. At Gunjan IVF World, the leading and best fertility center in Delhi NCR, we’ve walked countless women through this exact crossroad, helping them safeguard their dream of a baby amid the storm.

The Harsh Reality: How Cancer Treatment Impacts Fertility

Cancer therapies like chemotherapy, radiation, or surgery often target fast-growing cells including the eggs in your ovaries. Chemo is particularly tough, potentially wiping out 70-90% of your ovarian reserve in just one cycle. For breast cancer or lymphoma patients under 35, the loss can mean early menopause or diminished egg quality down the line. “We’ve seen it firsthand: young women emerging cancer-free, only to face infertility when they’re finally ready to start a family,” says Dr Gunjan Gupta – Medical Director of the most awarded Fertility Centre in Ghaziabad.

Egg freezing also called ‘oocyte cryopreservation’ lets you harvest and freeze healthy, mature eggs before treatment begins, storing them for future IVF cycles with success rates rivaling fresh eggs (up to 90% survival post-thaw at top labs like ours).

Why Now? The Urgency Can’t Be Overstated

Time is everything in cancer care. Most oncologists recommend fertility preservation within 1-2 weeks of diagnosis, before any hormone-sensitive treatments start. It’s a quick process: 10-14 days of hormone stimulation to produce multiple eggs, followed by a simple retrieval under sedation. No surgery scars, minimal downtime, and you can often start chemo right after. At Gunjan IVF World, our fertility preservation services in Delhi bring about same-day consultations with the best fertility specialists in Delhi, ensuring you don’t delay this opportunity especially when time is of the essence.

Real talk from our patients: “I froze 7 eggs at 32 during my hodgkin’s battle. Three years later, I’m cancer-free with a healthy baby boy, something I thought I’d lost forever.”

Who Benefits Most and What Are the Success Odds?

Women under 35 facing breast cancer, cervical cancer, or sarcomas see the biggest wins, as younger eggs yield higher IVF success (40-50% live birth per cycle). Even in your late 30s, banking 15-20 eggs boosts odds significantly. Risks are low, mild bloating from stimulation meds, rare ovarian hyperstimulation (under 1%) and far outweighed by regaining control over your reproductive future. Our IVF clinic in Ghaziabad has powered dozens of such stories, with personalized protocols factoring in your cancer type and treatment plan. In fact, Dr Gunjan Gupta is India’s only author to have published a easy to understand book on egg freezing – something all women between 24-35, single regardless of their medical condition should be reading. Trust us – it is a sure shot eye opener.
