Can you commit to the process?
Your doctor will explain this to you in your consultation, but it’s worth noting even before booking that consultation: egg freezing is time-intensive, and requires many steps. It even requires work from you. There will be bloodwork, a hormone test to check the health of your eggs, an ultrasound, hormone injections to stimulate follicle growth (one to three a day that you must give yourself), medicine to prevent early ovulation, egg retrieval…all of this will require that you are incredibly on top of your homework, or it’s all for nothing, and it will take between five and seven doctor’s visits.
