[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Freeze your eggs ASAP. Don’t think about it just do it.[/quote]

When the latest you can freeze your eggs?[/quote]

Like 35[/quote]

A friend of mine froze hers at 40, and apparently she had a large reserve. Everyone is different.[/quote]

Has she tried to use them yet? It is so incredibly unlikely that anyone (ANYONE) can freeze eggs at 40 and get a viable pregnancy from them. It’s not at all the same as getting naturally pregnant at 40, which we all know happens to some people sometimes.[/quote]

I wouldn’t say that. I know from having done IVF at 38 and 39 they lots of eggs =/= great fertility, because a lot of the embryos will be aneuploid, but I think a 40yo with a good reserve (say 10 mature eggs from 1 cycle) would probably have around a 25% chance of a live birth from that one cycle. Definitely not the guarantee I think egg freezing is often billed as, but still a chance.[/quote]
