Southwest Center for Reproductive Health

A ReproTech, Ltd Freezing Center

The Southwest Center for Reproducitve Health is committed to making sperm banking services available and has recently joined a Freezing Center Network comprised of top fertility centers around the country.

Today, fertility preservation should be considered an important element of your cancer treatment and your overall health. With today's advancements in reproductive medicine, cryopreserved sperm can be used in a variety of treatments to assist men to become fathers. Please call us for a consultation to discuss pre-treatment and post-treatment options. 

Who needs to utilize Sperm Banking?
Anyone who may be at risk for infertility should consider sperm banking. This includes men diagnosed with cancer, men undergoing certain types of surgeries, men involved in high-risk occupations, men undergoing vasectomy, and men who are already involved in fertility treatments and may not be available when needed.

What is involved?

The process is relatively simple.
The first step is to make an appointment - call (915)842-9998 Appointments are usually available within 1-2 days due to the often urgent nature of cancer treatments. It is desirable to bank all specimens before treatment (or high risk exposures begin) however recent studies have indicated that viable samples may be collected after the initiation of some forms of treatment.  

Be prepared.
Ideally, a patient should not have had any sexual activity for 2-5 days prior to each collection appointment. It is also important to have had at least one ejaculation between 5-10 days before the appointment. These time frames should not dictate the collection schedule for each patient but do provide for more successful sperm banking. Generally, 2-3 specimens will be adequate for multiple pregnancy attempts utilizing assisted reproductive technologies but patients are encouraged to collect and store as many samples as possible.

Required testing.
Current HIV (AIDS), hepatitis (B and C), and HTLV-I&II tests are required for sperm banking. These tests may be completed through our office.

Long term storage. 

Following cryopreservation, specimens are shipped to ReproTech, Ltd. for long-term cryostorage. ReproTech is inspected and accredited by the American Association of Tissue Banks. See ReproTech, Ltd. for more details.

What costs are involved?
Most patients are surprised to learn that sperm storage costs less than a dollar a day. The cost for sperm freezing varies depending on the number of specimens banked. Please contact our office for fees.

Please call us for a consultation. Together we may be able to make a difference in your life…and in your future fertility.

"The technology of assisted reproductive techniques (ART) in recent years has progressed at a tremendous pace. Today, cryopreservation of sperm with subsequent ART can provide most post-therapy infertile cancer patients an opportunity to father children. Men who once had little or no chance of producing a pregnancy through assisted techniques due to “poor" semen quality now have fertility rates approaching that of couples undergoing standard IVF when there is no male infertility involved. As a result, cryopreservation of sperm should be attempted before therapy by all men who may want to father children in the future."
