Fertility preservation - sperm freezing: patient information
Scottish Government and NHS Scotland general patient information for those patients considering fertility preservation by sperm freezing.
Who can help me decide what to do?
Your doctors and nurses can offer guidance as you make this decision about sperm freezing. Visiting the fertility centre doesn’t mean you have to go ahead with sperm freezing, but it will give you the chance to explore your options fully.
It’s also important to lean on your usual support network, such as family, friends or community support groups to help you decide what’s best for you.
Counsellors, while not directly involved in your medical care, can offer valuable support in helping you decide whether to proceed with fertility preservation, including sperm freezing, and provide additional emotional support throughout the process.
