Why I throw Egg Freezing Parties
I started throwing Egg Freezing parties as a fun way for people to learn about fertility. There is humor. There is honest talk. Mostly, I throw them because I want every person to be empowered with knowledge about their fertility. It's really as simple as that. Egg Freezing parties are safe and surgery-free gatherings of women (and sometimes men) to learn more about the process of freezing your eggs (or sperm). Beyond that, we talk in general about fertility and how every woman (and man) can take a proactive role in preserving theirs. I started Egg Freezing parties for a simple reason. Older women were in my office struggling with fertility only to wish they had known more when they were younger. Had someone told them to get their fertility levels checked and to consider the option of preserving their eggs they most certainly would have. I don't want to hear years from now that women wished they'd known more about their fertility. This is what drives me to throw parties to make sure everyone knows they have options! I'm an egg rescuer, egg whisperer and fertility myth buster! Read the full transcript and show notes on Dr. Aimee's website. Do you have questions about Egg Freezing?

Keeping Your Embryos Safe at a Cryobank with Sean Pae and Ginger Huang of CryoFuture
Today, I'm excited to be joined by two members of the CryoFuture team: CEO and senior embryologist Sean Pae and Chief Operating Officer, Ginger Huang. CryoFuture is a cryogenic lab that stores frozen eggs and embryos in the San Francisco Bay Area, and we're talking basics here: how a cryo facility works, security considerations, and how their lab makes sure that there are no mixups. I know that many of my patients have a lot of questions about how embryos, eggs, and sperm are stored, and their safety, so we're playing a quick game of "safe or not safe." (spoiler because I don't want to stress anyone out who is trusting a cryobank with their own precious cargo: they'll be safe.) You'll hear us talk about floods, fire, earthquakes, and how specimens will be safe in the case of a car accident while being transported. You can tune in to learn more about the measures that CryoFuture takes to ensure safety, and how they monitor your cargo in transport. It's a fascinating look behind the scenes of how they handle things! Thank you so much for joining me, Sean and Ginger! I love working with you and love the care you extend to my patients and anyone going through IVF in the Bay Area. Learn more about Dr. Aimee at the website.

The Most Important Thing to Know Before IVF with Dr. Max Ezzati and Dr. Aimee
Preparing for IVF can be an emotional and complex journey, and having the right information beforehand can make all the difference. In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Max Ezzati, a highly respected reproductive endocrinologist, to discuss the most important thing to know before starting IVF. Dr. Ezzati shares key insights about how patients can optimize their chances of success, the factors that influence embryo quality, and why understanding ovarian reserve is crucial. We also dive into the role of lifestyle factors, genetic screening, and cutting-edge advancements in reproductive medicine. If you're considering IVF or supporting someone on their fertility journey, this conversation will empower you with the knowledge you need. One important concept we discuss is the IVF pyramid, which illustrates how the number of eggs retrieved translates to the number of viable embryos. Not every egg leads to a healthy embryo, and understanding this process can help patients set realistic expectations about their IVF journey.
