Egg freezing is an exciting technology. Many proponents of egg freezing have lauded the advantages of this technology as a feminist advancement. The idea of offering this technology to healthy young women is revolutionary and empowering.

Since we know that a woman’s fertility – including her ovarian reserve and egg quality – declines with age, elective egg freezing offers one option to those wishing to conceive later. Egg freezing allows women to use their own eggs, frozen when they were young and healthy, to help them achieve a pregnancy later—when they might otherwise have a harder time finding healthy eggs.

Advances in technology have made egg freezing much more successful. A new technique called “vitrification” — where the eggs are frozen so quickly that damaging ice crystals don’t get a chance to form — has made it more likely for eggs to survive thawing at a later date.

Egg freezing is a revolutionary technology that allows mature eggs to be frozen and stored for later use. Initially developed as a means to ‘preserve’ the fertility of women ahead of cancer treatment, it is now increasingly used by women wishing to protect their fertility for a variety of ‘social’ reasons.
