Menopause can be delayed for two decades, doctors claim
Thousands of women will benefit from a breakthrough medical procedure that can delay menopause for as long as 20 years, allowing older women to become pregnant. The 30-minute revolutionary procedure tricks the biological clock into thinking it is much younger than it is.
A fertility expert, who pioneered In Vitro Fertilization (IVF), may have found a breakthrough medical treatment ideal for women up to 40 years old, who wants to give birth even after they’ve reached the age of menopause.
First, of its kind, the procedure involves the removal of a tiny piece of the ovary through keyhole surgery. The tissue will undergo freezing at a temperature of -150 degrees Celsius. After, the doctor can store the ovarian tissue in an ice bank until the woman reaches menopause.
Then, the doctors can get the tissue, thawed, and transplanted back into the woman. The process will trigger the natural hormones, which, in turn, will delay menopause.
