Teenage and young adult cancers fertility preservation - egg freezing: patient information
Scottish Government and NHS Scotland Teenage and Young Adult Cancers patient information for those patients considering fertility preservation by egg freezing.
What do I do when I wish to use the stored eggs?
If you have any questions about your fertility or are considering using your stored eggs, ask your GP for a referral to your local fertility centre, preferably the one where your eggs are stored, for further advice and support.
It’s also important to note that additional criteria must be met to access NHS fertility treatment using your stored eggs in the future. These criteria may change over time, and it is not possible to know what the requirements will be in the years to come. Current criteria can be found here – Access Criteria NHS IVF Treatment Scotland – Fertility Network.
