Why freeze eggs?

Egg freezing has become more popular and accessible in recent years.

Some of the reasons why women freeze their eggs include (1-3):

• Wanting more time to find a partner, or for a relationship to develop before starting a family.
• Wanting a back-up plan (or ‘Plan B’) in case they are unable to become pregnant naturally or have more than one child in the future.
• Wanting to take the pressure off themselves.
• Not feeling financially or emotionally ready to start a family.
• Wanting more time to think about having a family.
• Feeling they may regret not freezing their eggs in the future.
