Pune doctors are observing a spike in enquiries about egg freezing. Many women in their late 20s-35s are coming forward, seeking clarity on the process, benefits, and suitability. 

Experts call it a positive shift, as egg freezing gives women the option to plan motherhood according to their personal and professional timelines. Now, it is seen as a practical tool to preserve fertility and reduce age-related risks.

Egg freezing, or oocyte cryopreservation, is a procedure where a woman’s eggs are collected, frozen, and stored for future use. When a woman is ready to conceive, these eggs can be thawed, fertilised with sperm, and implanted in the uterus.
