In my β9-5β day job I see a lot of women coming into the office to freeze their eggs…
π₯π₯π₯
I see them after they have realized they arenβt meeting the right Man or Woman right now and their biological clock is ticking…
π₯π₯π₯
I see them when they can finally afford to freeze their eggs!
π₯π₯π₯
And by this time, they need at least 25 to 35 eggs to ensure 1 healthy live birth.
π₯π₯π₯
Yes, we are born with 1-2 million π₯s at birth and we ovulate @ 450-500 π₯s in our reproductive lifetime (assuming we were not on birth control pills).
π₯π₯π₯
Misconception – birth control pills do NOT save up on eggs!
π₯π₯π₯
When we stimulate a woman (depending upon her fertility and with the very real fact that the average age of menopause is 35-55 years of age) we may only get +/- 5-10 eggs with each IVF/egg freeze cycle . Most importantly we donβt even know if these π₯s are healthy until it is time to make a baby with them.
π₯π₯π₯
Each egg freeze cycle can cost anywhere from $10,000 – $15,000 PER cycle… what college girl has that kind of dough lying around???
π₯π₯π₯
To answer the question βWhen is the best age to freeze your eggs?β
π₯π₯π₯
Consider this: No IVF Clinic will take an anonymous egg donor that is over 27-28 years of age…
π₯π₯π₯
Ladies, DONATE YOUR EGGS TO YOURSELF… before you are over 28 years old.
π₯π₯π₯
To our healthcare system… PAY for women to donate their eggs to themselves so we can keep our species alive…
