Egg freezing (oocyte preservation) was once a medical procedure for patients facing infertility due to illness or surgery.

In 2012, the American Society for Reproductive Medicine (ASRM) declared it “non-experimental,” making elective or social egg freezing more mainstream.

Now widely used by Canadians seeking to delay parenthood for personal, career, or relationship reasons.
