Women who dream of starting a family when time is not on their side are increasingly shelling out tens of thousands of dollars to freeze their eggs for future use. Figures from an Australian database maintained by UNSW show more and more women are choosing to use this reproductive technology annually, with 7000 women freezing their eggs in 2022 compared with 3642 in 2020. However recent studies have found that many women who paid to freeze their eggs believed it was a waste of money.
Some have even sponsored social media influencers to promote their service, which Hammarberg said did not present women with an accurate picture. “Very few give a some kind of estimate of how many eggs you would need to have a reasonable chance of having a baby,” she said. “Most women in their late 30s would need to do two or three repeat cycles to get to that number, and that means the cost is doubling or tripling.
