The following options are then available in the future:

• In-vitro maturation of primary ovarian follicles and immature eggs until they reach the mature egg stage and are able to be fertilized using the IVF method.
• Autologous transplantation, meaning that the ovarian tissue that had been removed is repositioned, with the aim of restoring ovarian function and, by extension, fertility.
• Heterologous transplantation, meaning transplantation of the tissue in another woman who has lost her reproductive ability.

Ovarian tissue cryopreservation is an internationally accepted method, but its functionality after transplantation is still being researched. Progress is continuous, though, and there is still hope for reproduction.
