This chapter discusses a study on the success rate of egg freezing, which found that age and number of eggs stored are important factors. Freezing eggs before the age of 38 and storing at least 20 eggs increases the chances of at least one live birth to 70%, while freezing eggs at 41 or older lowers the success rate to 23%.

Egg-freezing was supposed to give women more control over childbearing; we look at scant data showing how successful it really is (10:57). And remembering Isabel Crook, an anthropologist who embraced China’s communist transformation, warts and all (15:44).
