“I really don’t understand why any woman wouldn’t do it,” she said.. “It is definitely an investment. Egg freezing literally allows you to freeze your fertility and time.”
She continued, “We really recommend people freeze their eggs between the ages of 25 to 35. But, any time is better than no time. By freezing your eggs, it’s really giving you options for the future. There are so many reasons to freeze your eggs. The biggest question is: Why wouldn’t you?”
