I recently took the plunge and froze my eggs in Bangkok, and today, I'm sharing why I made that choice and what the process was like. If you're a woman between the ages of 20 - late 30s, whether you want kids or not, this episode is for you.
We'll cover the basics: what egg freezing entails, the costs involved, and why Bangkok was the right choice for me. Understanding optimal fertility, the importance of factors like quantity, quality, and environmental health will also be discussed, along with the initial steps you need to take, like getting your AMH levels tested and selecting a fertility clinic.
Then, I'll walk you through my personal experience during the process: from daily injections to clinic visits for monitoring to the surgery. I'll share how I felt physically and emotionally, what surprised me, and the recovery period afterward.
Finally, we'll touch on what happens next: the ongoing costs of storage and what happens if and when I decide to use my frozen eggs.
Whether you're considering egg freezing yourself or simply curious about the journey, take a listen as my goal is to spread awareness of early testing, having kids later, fertility/infertility, and your egg-freezing options.
