Cryopreserving Ovaries

In this particular case, harvesting and re-transplanting the ovaries hay a valid and legitimate medical grounds. But I wonder... could this technique then be used (or misused?) to postpone pregnancy? Are we soon going to see women in their 30s perhaps, having their ovaries preserved this way, to be used at a later time, when they're "more ready" to face motherhood
? Or could this perhaps be a possible route to treat infertility- women who can't bear children because of ovarian issues getting cryopreserved ovaries from other women?Sounds surreal. But perhaps not for long anymore.
