While there are hundreds of institutions in the U.S. that freeze sperm and embryos, there are only about a dozen fertility clinics around the country that will freeze a womans eggs. They do it usually only on a case-by-case basis -- as a last resort during in-vitro fertilization treatments when a couple is using donor eggs, or sperm isnt available at the same time as the eggs. Also clinics make the service available to cancer patients when their treatment threatens to destroy their fertility. *Letters to the Editor: First, Lets Count the Babies The Wall Street Journal, 168 words Apr 29, 2002 Amy Marcuss April 17 article on egg freezing, 'Los Angeles Fertility Clinic Set to Offer Egg Banking to the Masses,' has one glaring omission: an example of at least one baby proven to have been born as the result of the technique at this clinic. Freezing eggs is easy; the difficult task is turning frozen eggs into healthy live births. About the Author: Dr. Kwang Yul Cha, the scientific director of the CHA Fertility Center, is an internationally renowned authority on the treatment of infertility.
