Egg Freezing: For Whom, When, and Why?
You want to become a mother but wish to postpone it.
Solution: Egg Freezing.
Here are the most common questions I receive from my patients.
First question: “Do I really need it, doctor?”
If you are under 35 and your ovarian reserve is good, not necessarily. If AMH is low and your egg reserve is poor, yes, you should. If you have been diagnosed with cancer — immediately. If there’s a family history of early menopause — don’t delay. If you have endometriosis or a planned surgery — do it beforehand.
“I’m 37, how many eggs should be collected?”
To ensure a live birth: 15–20 eggs. Whether it takes one or multiple cycles depends on your reserve. Even with 3–4 eggs, there’s still a chance. It only takes one egg and one sperm to achieve pregnancy. Our goal is to increase the odds.
“Can eggs be collected through the abdomen for virgins?”
Yes, if necessary, they can be retrieved abdominally.
“How long can eggs be stored?”
Technically, indefinitely.
“Can I transport my eggs abroad?”
Unfortunately, not from Turkey.
“How long does stimulation and retrieval take?”
Usually 10–12 days.
