Deep dives
The Rising Popularity of Egg Freezing
Egg freezing has gained traction as a method for women to preserve their fertility, allowing them to delay childbirth until they feel ready. However, the process is expensive and often inaccessible for women under 30 who are financially less stable. The most effective time for egg freezing is before this age, but many women are unable to afford it at the optimal time, creating a significant barrier. Additionally, women facing infertility or other health issues may find themselves unable to freeze their eggs altogether, which complicates their family planning.
