Why Consider Egg Freezing?

Egg freezing, also called oocyte cryopreservation, is a proactive way to preserve eggs while they are still healthy and viable. Many women choose egg freezing because they want to:

  • Delay childbearing for career, education, or personal reasons
  • Preserve eggs before age-related fertility decline
  • Protect fertility due to family history of early menopause or low ovarian reserve
  • Have more time to find the right partner without worrying about their biological clock

Fertility naturally declines with age, especially after 35. By freezing your eggs earlier, you can give yourself the best chance of having a healthy pregnancy later using your own eggs.

Why Freeze Your Eggs Sooner?

  • Younger eggs have higher success rates when thawed and used later.
  • Freezing earlier reduces the risk of chromosomal abnormalities related to maternal age.
  • More eggs can be retrieved when ovarian reserve is still strong, reducing the need for multiple cycles.

If you're in your 20s or early 30s, egg freezing offers the best chance for future success.

At AFCT, we understand that the decision to freeze your eggs is deeply personal. Our fertility specialists provide personalized consultations to help you understand your options and create a plan that aligns with your life goals.
