Egg Freezing
"The freezing of human
eggs for future fertilization is theoretically feasible.
Unfortunately only a limited number of successful cases
has been reported. If egg cryopreservation proved clinically
successful it could be used to store younger women's eggs
for pregnancy at an older age, or for women receiving chemotherapy
or other cancer treatments."

Reproduction. Edwards and Brody. W.B Saunders Company, 1995)
