We know we can freeze embryos, but they need to be fertilized. So with this tech, a teenager could get an ovary frozen, then later, even after her normal reproductive years, the ovary could be re-implanted, her own ova extracted, fertilized by a partner chosen after she knows what she is doing, better outcome perhaps.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>spike <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p></div></body></html>
