Egg Freezing
More people are waiting to start their families, whether to focus on careers, travel, or find the right partner—there’s no wrong reason to wait. Egg freezing allows you to pause your biological clock, giving you more flexibility and options for the future.
Why Egg Freezing?
Fertility Changes Over Time
Egg quantity and quality both decline with age. Freezing your eggs preserves them at your current age, increasing your chances of success if you need help getting pregnant in the future.
Flexibility and Peace of Mind
Egg freezing allows you to focus on your priorities—like career, travel, or finding the right partner—without feeling pressured by your biological clock.
A Sprint, Not a Marathon
Egg freezing is a focused, short-term process. In just a few weeks, you can complete the steps to preserve your eggs, giving you an empowering safety net for your future family plans.

Frequently Asked Questions
Everyone’s reproductive journey is unique, and the right time for egg freezing varies from person to person. While there’s no universal answer, it’s important to know that eggs are generally healthiest when women are in their mid-20s. At this age, women typically have the highest number of follicles and eggs with fewer chromosomal abnormalities, which is why most egg donor programs recruit women between 21 and 30.
Reproductive timelines also vary significantly—some women reach menopause around 51, while others experience their last menstrual period closer to 41. For younger women early in their careers, egg freezing may feel financially out of reach. However, it’s often more cost-effective to freeze eggs at a younger age, as fewer cycles are usually needed, and medication requirements are lower. In contrast, older women may need more cycles to achieve a similar result, which can make the process more expensive.
No, egg freezing does not impact your future fertility. The process of egg retrieval only takes a small portion of the eggs available in that cycle, leaving the rest of your egg supply unaffected. Similar to how birth control pills don’t extend or reduce fertility, egg freezing preserves eggs without changing your body’s natural reproductive potential.
Your eggs can remain frozen for as long as you need. Many women choose to try conceiving naturally first, viewing their frozen eggs as a backup plan. Others, especially those with known risk factors for infertility, may decide to use their frozen eggs as soon as they’re ready to start a family. Some women even turn to their frozen eggs when they’re ready to have a second or third child. There’s no “one size fits all” approach—your eggs will be there whenever you’re ready to use them.
No. Most women can get pregnant naturally and their eggs become a backup plan should they need it. We encourage you to think about how many children you want when freezing your eggs. Although it may be easy to get pregnant naturally the first time, depending how many children you want, consider freezing eggs for that second, third or fourth child (if that’s your desired plan).
In most cases, no. You do not have to take out your IUD to go through egg freezing, and hormonal birth control pills will be evaluated based on your unique situation. If you are using the Nexplanon implant, we will ask you to remove it before starting the egg freezing process.
