Like anything preserved, there may be some question about the side effects of freezing human eggs that are meant to be maintained in their original state.
Women may choose to freeze their eggs at any age throughout their 20s and 30s, but freezing eggs by the age of 34 seems to lead to the best chances of a resulting pregnancy.
A woman may decide to freeze her eggs for a variety of reasons...
Egg freezing is the only way for a woman to preserve her eggs now to use at a later time to have a baby. However, it is considered an elective procedure by insurance companies, so likely the full cost will be the responsibility of the woman.
Egg freezing is the process of extracting and preserving a woman’s eggs for use at a later date. You know those super healthy, viable eggs you have when you’re younger that you have no intention of turning into a baby just yet because you’d like to spend a few years spending money on concert tickets and trips to Thailand before you have to spend all of it on diapers and childcare?
Think of egg freezing as a 401K for your fertility; you put healthy eggs in the bank now so that you can withdraw them later.
