Freezing Time

It’s nobody’s dream to find themselves in a fertility clinic in their mid-30s, but in episode one I explain why I had a fertility test at 34 and how I came to the decision to freeze my eggs. I also have a chat with fertility expert Zita West who tells me about the so-called fertility ‘cliff’, and offers me some advice about preparing for the egg freezing treatment.

All you ever wanted to know (and probably a few bits that you didn’t) about egg freezing. What does it involve? What are the success rates? Will the hormones make me moody? And is it really true that a woman’s ovaries swell to the size of melons?

Writer and host Sophia Money-Coutts is 35, single and having her eggs frozen. In this podcast, she shares her audio diaries of the whole process, from choosing a fertility clinic to the operation itself, along with the ups (and downs) of undergoing an emotional and hormonal procedure. She also investigates the science behind egg freezing, its rapid growth in popularity, and speaks to fertility experts and women who’ve gone through freezing about their experience of the procedure. Plus, she has the odd chat with her mum.

Launching soon.
