New fertility technique being researched in Germany
Hot off the press … German researchers seem to have developed a new fertility technique that targets women with cancer.
“It is not new drugs,” said Michael Von Wolf, a researcher at the University of Heidelberg in Germany. “Everybody can do it.”
According to that Reuter’s release, the results were promising:
The technique stimulated the ovaries in about 12 days and produced 10 eggs, compared to just over 10 days and 13 eggs for women given the drugs earlier in their cycle, Wolff said. About the same percentage of eggs were viable in both groups.”
The study was small, a sampling of 40 women, but the results were promising enough to give hope to women who do not want to delay their chemotherapy treatment but want to preserve their eggs for future use.
