I Can’t Freeze My Eggs Because Of My BMI

In today’s episode, Remy and Emily do a “Dear DST” from a listener interested in freezing her eggs. She meets all of the requirements to do so, except one—yup, you guessed it—her BMI.

Remy and Emily dissect this frustrating situation, and talk about how BMI doesn’t actually determine your health.

They wrap up by asking the age old question: Is maturity not laying around in your own filth?
