[Seongnam=Newsis] Reporter Jun-koo Lee = CHA University of Science and Technology Bundang Cha Women’s Hospital (Director Sang-hyeok Lee) Chan Lee (Gynecological Cancer Center), Sang-Hee Sang (Obstetrics and Gynecology), and Ji-Eun Shin (Fertility Center), a multidisciplinary team consisting of professors, stored frozen three years ago. It was announced on the 3th that she succeeded in thawing the egg and giving birth.
A (then 2015 years old), who underwent a right ovarian salpingectomy for endometriosis in 30, was diagnosed with endometriosis with a size of 2 cm on the left side in 2017, two years later.
Person A said, "Professor Chan Lee, who was the attending physician, recommended that the eggs be stored frozen for marriage and childbirth because the tumor size was large and the remaining ovary could be operated in a situation where there was only one ovary." There were no plans for this, but I decided to keep the eggs without hesitation because I wanted to give birth to a child someday.”
Then, in August 2017, after having Professor Shin Ji-eun at the Bundang Cha Women's Hospital Fertility Center collect the eggs, Mr. A kept the eggs frozen. After that, Mr. A, who had been undergoing treatment for the preservation of the left ovary, got married in 8 and tried a natural pregnancy, but it did not work.
Jeong Sang-hee, a professor of obstetrics and gynecology at Bundang Cha Women's Hospital, said, "If Mr. A, who was unmarried in his 20s at the time, had not kept the eggs, pregnancy and childbirth could have been difficult due to decreased ovarian function. Even single women who do not plan to have children, it is important to keep the birth plan in mind and proceed with surgery and treatment to preserve fertility, and the Most helpful among them is egg storage.”
In fact, according to the analysis results of the Women's Medicine Research Center at CHA Hospital, the number of women who stored eggs due to cancer or other diseases is increasing rapidly every year, increasing more than 2010 times from 3 in 2018 to 94 in 31.
Professor Shin Ji-eun of the Fertility Center at CHA Bundang Women's Hospital said, "Recently, as a result of a survey of 1000 women before childbirth at CHA Bundang Women's Hospital, 10 out of 7 women said that they wanted to keep them for childbirth. In particular, if a woman needs chemotherapy before childbirth, or if she has severe uterine or ovarian disease, it is necessary to preserve fertility through egg storage.”
In 2011, CHA Hospital succeeded in giving birth by thawing the eggs of a woman who had stored eggs in advance for leukemia and had frozen them for 10 years.
Bundang Cha Women’s Hospital expanded and opened as Asia’s largest infertility center in a university hospital in November last year, introduced multidisciplinary treatment to maximize infertility treatment, and provided premium integrated medical services including food therapy, meditation, lifestyle correction, and healing programs. are doing
In addition, CHA Hospital's 60-year reproductive medicine technology and global infrastructure of 7 clinics in 61 countries including the US, Japan, Australia and Singapore have been combined to establish itself as a 'mecca of pregnancy treatment'.
