Freezing semen - مركز حقن مجهرى دكتور عمرو عبد العزيز

This is done by keeping the sperm at a very low temperature, where an assessment of the quality of the semen is made, after which a protective substance is added to the sperm to protect it from cell damage caused by the low temperature, and the temperature is gradually and slowly lowered. This procedure is done in the context of assisted reproductive therapy, and it is also recommended in the event that the man undergoes medical or surgical treatments that may affect sperm production.
