Fertility preservation is receiving increased attention as an evolving area of reproductive medicine. It aims to preserve reproductive tissue for future use, but there are a lot of myths and misconceptions around the practice. Today’s guest is Dr. Lucky Sekhon, a reproductive endocrinologist and infertility specialist and board certified obstetrician and gynecologist who cares for patients at RMA of New York’s Manhattan and Downtown (SoHo) Offices. She specializes in diagnosing and treating reproductive issues and has particular expertise in fertility preservation or egg freezing, LGBTQ family building, and in vitro fertilization with pre-implantation genetic testing of embryos. Dr. Sekhon is active in clinical research at RMA in Mount Sinai, and can also be found frequently in the press and on social media, as a women’s health advocate and educator. She is passionate about improving awareness when it comes to reproductive health, both professionally and personally. She is very open with her patients about her own journey with fertility preservation, and she hopes to counteract stigma and dispel the common myths and misconceptions about fertility preservation and treatment. Tune in to find out more about doing a reproductive consultation, freezing eggs versus freezing sperm, and freezing embryos versus freezing eggs, as well as some of the misconceptions about barriers to entry.
