info_outlineI started Egg Freezing parties for a simple reason. Older women were in my office struggling with fertility only to wish they had known more when they were younger. Had someone told them to get their fertility levels checked and to consider the option of preserving their eggs they most certainly would have.
I don’t want to hear years from now that women wished they’d known more about their fertility. This is what drives me to throw parties to make sure everyone knows they have options! I’m an egg rescuer, egg whisperer and fertility myth buster!
