Eggs Unscrambled is the girlfriend's guide to everything you need to know about your reproductive options, especially the groundbreaking technology that has revolutionized the modern woman's life: oocyte cryopreservation. With the help of NYU Langone Fertility Center's Dr. Nicole Noyes and Dr. Sarah Druckenmiller, Fischer debunks common misconceptions about fertility, offers no-nonsense details of the egg freezing process, and lays out a real plan to help you make important life-changing decisions in an informed way.
The Truth:
-The number of eggs in a woman's ovaries peaks while she is still in the womb, and it is all downhill from there!
-Women only spend about twelve minutes every year talking to their gynecologists.
-Men have a biological clock, too.
The Lies:
-Getting pregnant is easy.
-Prince Charming will come, one day.
-You have all the time in the world-even into your forties-to get pregnant.
The Essential Questions:
-At what age should you start considering egg freezing?
-Are you willing to be a single mom?
-Can you afford the expensive procedure?
