26 Women Get Real About Freezing their Eggs
November 16, 2023
More people than ever are signing on — and paying up — for the fertility-preserving procedure. Dr. Lucky Sekhon offers her advice for women considering fertility preservation:
“You need a lot more eggs than you would probably think. That's why I say, if you're 35, ideally you're going to want to freeze a minimum of 15 eggs to have a really good chance at one baby and a decent chance at having two children. At 35, theoretically, 13 eggs would survive [the thaw], 10 would fertilize, six would turn into embryos, and four out of six of those embryos might be viable. And having two normal embryos per child that you want is a good bet.”
