Sperm Freezing

Sperm freezing, or cryopreservation, involves collecting and storing sperm cells at very low temperatures for future use. This technique is often used for men undergoing medical treatments that may affect fertility, those with a low sperm count, or individuals who wish to delay fatherhood.
