Скачать или смотреть Beat the Biological Clock: Egg Freezing

Women are born with a finite number of eggs, and both egg quality and quantity decline steadily with age. After age 35, the rate of chromosomal abnormalities rises sharply, reducing the likelihood of healthy embryos and natural conception. The key insight: the age of the pregnancy depends on the age of the egg, not the woman.

Egg freezing (oocyte cryopreservation) gives women the power to preserve their fertility by freezing eggs at their biological prime for future use. The process involves hormonal stimulation to produce multiple eggs, which are then retrieved and frozen through vitrification, a rapid-freezing technique that prevents ice crystal damage and ensures high survival rates upon thawing.

The ideal age range for egg freezing is typically between 30 and 35, with early 30s (around 32–34) offering the best balance of egg quality and quantity. While women can still freeze eggs later in life, more eggs are usually needed to achieve similar success rates.

When ready, the frozen eggs are thawed, fertilized via IVF, and transferred into the uterus, offering a renewed chance at pregnancy. Beyond science, egg freezing represents reproductive freedom, allowing women to pursue education, careers, and personal growth without being constrained by the biological clock.
