The event aims to “normalize egg freezing,” run by a startup collaborating with a private fertility clinic.

In the US , some clinics throw “egg freezing parties” with champagne and canapés .

The event is taking place at a private members’ club in a bougie part of London .

Fertility is not part of our education and not a topic that health providers routinely address.

An ovary contains follicles, which are tiny, fluid-filled sacs.

Only one follicle goes all the way to maturity, while the rest of the cohort gets expelled through “apoptosis” It’s typically only the dominant follicle that releases an egg at ovulation, and the egg goes on to travel down the fallopian tube.

Modern reproductive technologies like IVF and egg freezing are worth celebrating, as they help millions of people start a family in a way that was impossible in previous decades .

The space urgently needs more regulation and transparency: We deserve the full picture.

The average age of egg freezing in the UK and U.S. is 38 , research shows.
