Oocyte cryopreservation (egg freezing) has evolved from an experimental procedure into an established, highly reliable family planning option for women seeking to preserve their fertility.
When is the Best Age to Freeze Eggs?
Biologically, egg quality and quantity are highest in a woman’s 20s and early 30s. Freezing eggs before age 35 provides the highest cumulative live birth potential per cycle. Thanks to flash-freezing vitrification, eggs can be stored in liquid nitrogen at -196°C indefinitely without biological aging.
