Fertility Preservation for Patients with
Cancer & Emotional Counselling
After Cancer Treatment
For patients undergoing various cancer treatments, fertility preservation may offer hope for building a family in the future. At our Oncofertility Center, we tailor the fertility preservation treatment for each patient.
Oncofertility Center recognizes that fertility is an important issue related to long-term quality of life. Fertility preservation involves oocyte(egg) and embryo freezing/banking and would be used to try to achieve pregnancy in the future.
In addition to fertility preservation, we also focus on the mind and body of our patients by offering South Korea’s first ever ‘Emotional Treatment System for Cancer Patients’ which integrates both rehabilitation and psychological counseling.
