Illuminating the Path to Parenthood: TMC Fertility's Innovations in Fertility Preservation
As June marks World Infertility Month, TMC Fertility @ Thomson Hospital Kota Damansara shines a spotlight on Malaysia's ongoing battle with infertility and the critical advancements in fertility preservation. In an exclusive media event, experts from TMC Fertility shared their insights on the latest developments in this field, underscoring their commitment to supporting individuals and couples with cutting-edge technology, expertise, and patient-centred care.
Infertility is a significant concern in Malaysia, affecting approximately 10 to 15% of couples. Dr. Aldrin Lie Tze Min, Medical Director, Consultant Obstetrician & Gynaecologist, and Fertility Specialist, highlighted, "Infertility is certainly a growing concern in Malaysia, affecting an increasing number of couples each year. However, understanding your available options and proactive planning are essential in addressing these issues."
Advancements in Fertility Preservation
In recent years, advancements in fertility preservation have provided new hope for many. Dr. Khairun Marina binti Bachok, Consultant Obstetrician & Gynaecologist, and Fertility Specialist, noted, "As an early player in fertility preservation in Malaysia, we have garnered extensive experience in this field, resulting in embryo, oocyte, and sperm freezing and thawing survival rates nearing 100%. It's crucial for individuals to be aware of the options modern technology and medical innovation can provide today."
For individuals facing conditions or treatments that can cause infertility, fertility preservation techniques offer an avenue for future family building. Prof. Dr. Prasanna Supramaniam, Associate Professor, Consultant Obstetrician & Gynaecologist, Fertility Specialist, Subspecialist in Reproductive Medicine, and Minimally Invasive Gynaecological Surgeon, emphasised, "Fertility preservation has evolved tremendously, providing hope for women with conditions like endometriosis or those undergoing treatments such as chemotherapy. The innovation of Ovarian Tissue Cryopreservation offers these women hope for a family through specialised IVF services."
Commitment to Advancing Reproductive Health
TMC Fertility has consistently been at the forefront of offering innovative fertility preservation techniques. Tee Sze Tian, Group Chief Embryologist, remarked, "Modern technology and techniques have significantly improved the success rates of fertility treatments. Our focus extends beyond providing state-of-the-art technology; we deliver personalized care to ensure the strongest possible outcomes for our patients."
Celebrating three decades of service, the healthcare group's ongoing 'Celebrating Life' campaign underscores its dedication to bringing hope and joy to families. With four other TMC Fertility branches in Puchong, Penang, Ipoh, and Johor Bahru, TMC records an IVF success rate of between 55% to 65%, with over 6,400 IVF babies born to date.
