Freezing Time

2. Let’s Talk About Eggs, Baby


Listen Later

The stigma around egg freezing is a very real thing, and something I've felt first-hand. In this episode, I talk to three women who've had very different experiences of it - Love Island's Amy Hart, Reem Mehanna who shocked her home country of Egypt when she announced she’d frozen her eggs in 2019, and Reniqua Allen-Lamphere, American author of a brilliant New York Times article entitled "Is Egg Freezing Only for White Women?" I also start the first stage of my egg freezing treatment - a nasal spray that proves tricky to get to grips with.
