"First ART Bank of Kerala"


        The urge to reproduce is strongly implanted in us by nature and is enforced by both altruistic drives and powerful traditions. We are living in a world where womanhood is equated with motherhood. Infertility can be a problem with either of the partners though women tend to face the scorn from society more and fall into depression. We at Valentia fertility solutions are trying to help those people who are sailing through the stormy waters of a childless marriage. Children are the source of happiness, the glue that holds a couple together. While yearning for a child, if you are not able to have one, it can take its toll on you.


You are not alone. People with infertility are all around you. It is a widespread problem more common than you think. Most of them have not taken their first step yet. Also, there are others out there like you seeking support and help for infertility. In our traditional culture people grow up being taught that one needs to have children to carry on the family name. In a society where not having children remains a taboo, the societal ridicule adds to the problem. Unfortunately, today around 15 percent of the Indian population, both male, and female, are infertile.Babies are bits of stardust blown from the hand of God. Whatever you call it, whichever be the cause, whoever you are, you crave for one.' The longer you wait for something, the more you'll appreciate it when you get it. Because anything worth having is worth waiting for. Moreover, remember 'You can if you think you can’, With patience, positive attitude and appropriate treatment most infertile couples will eventually experience the joys of parenthood.Each path to parenthood is unique, but in the end, you get to hold a healthy baby, and the journey that brought you to the destination will make perfect sense.


        Valentia fertility solutions is an “ART Bank” the first of its kind in Kerala; which delivers comprehensive, competent and compassionate care to couples.Valentia fertility solutions introduces sophisticated facilities as sperm donation, egg donation, social semen freezing are the pioneers in offering the public, onco-freezing facility.

  • To provide thefirst public oncofreezing facility.

  • To treat our clients as our first priority and to provide resources for establishing infertility services.
  • To provide our patients with personalized and transparent infertility care in a compassionate and supportive setting

  • To promote the science and practice of fertility preservation in India

Semen Bank


  • Male infertility occurs when quality sperm cannot be produced and ejaculated into the vagina, swim through the cervix into the uterus, and be present in sufficient quantity to initiate fertilization and subsequent pregnancy. When there is severe male factor infertility or complete absence of sperm in the male partner; modern management of a low sperm count uses assisted reproductive technology but, even today 50-60 % resort to “donor” inseminations as the cost and success of other various treatments like ICSI are high and inaccessible to the masses. Hence, treatment with donated sperm is their only hope of conceiving a baby.

  • “Change your thoughts and you change your world.” Most husbands still hesitate at the idea of their wives accepting somebody else’s sperm. However, the rise of infertility in men is a sign that men need to act for a social cause to help a couple bring their dreams into reality. Unsuccessful infertility treatments can be even more complicated due to the investment of time, money and emotions. Hence, people should not see this concept as frivolous or sexual but as a benevolent act such as blood donation.

  • At Valentia fertility solutions we are trying to make a radical social change in the scenario of semen cryopreservation. Here Sperm donation is an encouraged choice and, like a blood donation is carried out in medically controlled circumstances and by qualified personnel. We are providing the most ethical and professional “Semen Bank” the first of its kind in Kerala to support the needy infertile couple.


Oocyte donation


  • The oocyte (egg) donation is a process in which eggs from a young, healthy woman are fertilized in the laboratory by sperm from the recipient’s partner or sperm donor. The resulting embryos are then transferred to the recipient’s uterus. Egg donation is an option for women who cannot be helped through procedures such as IVF or whose eggs are unable to achieve a pregnancy due to advanced reproductive age, genetic abnormalities, previous surgeries or other conditions.

  • Our donor egg coordinator will help a couple select an appropriate donor based on physical characteristics, education, and family background. Each egg donor undergoes a very thorough screening and testing process, ensuring you the highest-quality donor eggs available anywhere.





Social freezing has given men the opportunity to freeze and store their own semen for future use. It is cryopreservation of human sperm which is the most widely applied aspect of cryobiology in reproductive medicine. The situations where we need this are


Abnormal seminogram

  • To assess male fertility, a test called seminogram or semen analysis is performed. If the sperm count is zero, that is, there are no spermatozoa in the semen sample, the subject might be diagnosed with azoospermia. If you have little to no sperm, poor sperm motility (ability to move), or abnormally shaped sperm, your sperm may not be able to fertilize your partner's eggs.

Postponement of pregnancy (Logistic reasons)

  • If the time is not right for you to start a family, VFS offers an opportunity to take control of your reproductive health and postpone parenthood until a later date. Freezing your Sperms is an act of empowerment, allowing you to preserve your reproductive ability. Get your sperm frozen now when you are at your optimal reproductive age.

  • Sometimes couples do not live together due to their work commitment. Men working overseas can freeze their sperms so that their spouse is able to have treatment while they are away. We do encourage men to freeze their sperms following an infertility treatment procedure as it can act as standby sperms for future use.

Unhealthy lifestyle

  • Here are some lifestyle factors that have shown to impact fertility in some couples. Smoking, long term usage of alcohol, addictive drugs or a particular type of medication may damage your spermatogenesis forever. High -risk sport may lead to spinal injury and consequently to damage of spermatogenesis for a short period. Working in an environment with a higher concentration of some chemical substances and radiation can cause sterility.


Patients newly diagnosed with cancer face tremendous fear and emotional stress. They frequently have to make many important decisions regarding upcoming cancer treatment options in a relatively short period of time. If you are about to embark on treatment like chemotherapy or radiotherapy and, particularly if you have no children, you should consider this option seriously.

Since the cancer survival rate is increasing, we may face the situation of infertility due to male factor at a later stage in life. This treatment consequence is unfortunately quite common. So you may want to bank sperm before you start treatment. The sperm can be stored for many years. In future, you can use it to father a child through fertility treatment. Many people have had healthy babies after fertility treatment following chemotherapy/Testicular/prostate surgery/Hormone replacement therapy may also cause damage to spermatogenesis. You can keep the semen stored for years and, later on, can take the sample to the clinic of your choice for the fertility treatment.

At Valentia fertility solutions we are offering the first and only public semen cryopreservation facility for young cancer patients so that they can have their biological material securely stored for the future.

What is oncofertility / Fertility preservation

  • The word Oncofertility was coined by Dr. Teresa K. Woodruff of Northwestern University to define an area of academic research and practice that concerns both oncology and reproductive medicine.Oncofertility researchers and practitioners studied fertility preservation options and were innovating new ways to help people who face impaired or reduced fertility rates due to cancer.

  • For a young man battling cancer, his primary focus is on treatment, and he might not realize that cancer treatment can interfere with his ability to have children. Survival to reproductive age among men with cancer has steadily increased and yet cancer therapy and cancer itself may carry the risk of infertility. They may face the situation of infertility due to male factor at a later stage in life.Unfortunately nowadays this treatment consequence is found to be quite common.

  • As the cancer survival rate increases and the emphasis are placed on long-term quality of life, the possibility of future fatherhood emerges as a pressing concern.A survey of males 14 to 40 years old who were newly diagnosed with cancer revealed that at diagnosis 51% of all study subjects and 77% of childless subjects desired to father children in the future.

Who needs it

  • Cancer thought of as predominantly affecting men beyond the reproductive age, such as lung, colon, and prostate cancer are increasingly seen in men who desire future paternity. The population of cancer survivors desiring future paternity is expanding as an increasing number of men pursue fatherhood later in life due to factors such as late marriage, divorce, educational and professional demands or the death of a spouse. So they may want to bank sperm before they start cancer treatment. The sperm can be stored for many years. In future, they can use it to father a child through fertility treatment. Many people have had healthy babies after fertility treatment following chemotherapy/Testicular or prostate surgery/Hormone replacement therapy though it had caused damage to spermatogenesis.

What we offer

  • Usually,individuals who are diagnosed with cancer are not presented fertility preservation options by their medical team.The healthcare personnel is unable to provide adequate counseling due to time constraints, perceived high cost and lack of accessible facilities. Hence,at Valentia fertility solutions we are offering the first and only public semen cryopreservation facility for young cancer patients at very reasonable cost so that they can have their biological material securely stored for the future. They can keep the sperm stored for years with VFS and, later on, can take the sample to the clinic of their choice for the fertility treatment.

Donor selection

  • A child’s smile is like a ray of sunshine on a cloudy day. - Most women desire a donor who resembles their partner as closely as possible.

  • Our sperm donor profiles also allow you to view information on the sperm donors such as their age, ethnic background, qualifications, occupation, general health, physical characteristics, their hobbies and interests. The resemblance can also be related to hair colour, eye colour, race and height. These are striking physical features that can be largely inherited. When the female wishes to conceive additional children by sperm donation, the same donor sperms can be made use of.

  • The advantage of having subsequent children by the same donor results in biological siblings, having the same biological father and mother.
