Teenage and young adult cancers fertility preservation - sperm freezing: patient information

Who can help me decide what to do?

Your doctors and nurses can provide guidance as you make this decision about sperm freezing. Visiting the fertility centre does not mean you have to go ahead with sperm freezing, but it will give you the opportunity to explore your options fully.

It’s also important to get help from your existing 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 go ahead with fertility preservation and provide additional emotional support throughout the process.
