1980s, preserving an unfertilized egg was a technical challenge that most <a class="css-yywogo" href="https://www.nytimes.com/2020/04/17/parenting/fertility/egg-freezing.html" title="">scientists didn’t think was worthy of solving</a>. In the late 1990s, however, researchers from around the world found a way to freeze and thaw an egg without damaging it.</p><p class="css-at9mc1 evys1bk0">In the early 2000s, fertility doctors in the United States conducted clinical trials to replicate the method. By 2012, there was <a class="css-yywogo" href="https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/23083924/" title="" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">strong evidence</a> that the procedure led to fertilization and pregnancy rates that were similar to in vitro fertilization, convincing the American Society for Reproductive Medicine to stop considering it an “experimental procedure.”</p><p class="css-at9mc1 evys1bk0">Without the label, insurance companies could cover the procedure, paving the way for tens of thousands of women to extend their fertility by freezing their eggs. Almost 20 percent of U.S. companies with more than 20,000 employees offer coverage for egg freezing, up from 6 percent in 2015, according to <a class="css-yywogo" href="https://www.mercer.us/our-thinking/healthcare/new-survey-finds-employers-adding-fertility-benefits-to-promote-dei.html" title="" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">a national survey</a> by Mercer, a corporate benefits consulting firm.</p><p class="css-at9mc1 evys1bk0">But even as egg freezing has grown more popular over the last decade, the process can seem intense and overwhelming. Here’s what you need to know.</p></div><aside class="css-ew4tgv" aria-label="companion column"></aside></div><div data-testid="Dropzone-1"></div><div class="css-s99gbd StoryBodyCompanionColumn" data-testid="companionColumn-1"><div class="css-53u6y8"><h2 class="css-1u37br4 eoo0vm40" id="link-5be0898c">What is egg freezing?</h2><p class="css-at9mc1 evys1bk0">Women are typically born with around <a class="css-yywogo" href="https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/articles/9118-female-reproductive-system#:~:text=At%20birth%2C%20there%20are%20approximately,quality%20of%20the%20remaining%20eggs." title="" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">one million eggs</a>, a number that steadily decreases with age. Oocyte cryopreservation, the technical term for egg freezing, is the procedure through which eggs are harvested, frozen and stored for later use.</p><p class="css-at9mc1 evys1bk0">When preparing for egg retrieval, patients take hormones to stimulate the ovaries, prompting them to grow multiple follicles (fluid-filled sacs that each house an egg). Once the follicles reach a certain size, a fertility specialist will retrieve the eggs, freezing only those that are ready to be fertilized. The entire process unfolds over about two weeks.</p><div class="css-1336jj"><div class="css-121kum4"><div class="css-171quhb"></div><div class="css-asuuk5"><noscript><div class="css-7axq9l" data-testid="optimistic-truncator-noscript"><svg width="24" height="24" viewBox="0 0 24 24" aria-hidden="true" class="css-1b5b8u1"><path fill="currentColor" fill-rule="evenodd" d="M2.5 12a9.5 9.5 0 1 1 19 0 9.5 9.5 0 0 1-19 0Zm8.5 1.75v-7.5h2v7.5h-2Zm0 2v2h2v-2h-2Z" clip-rule="evenodd"></path></svg><div data-testid="optimistic-truncator-noscript-message" class="css-6yo1no"><p class="css-3kpklk">We are having trouble retrieving the article content.</p><p class="css-3kpklk">Please enable JavaScript in your browser settings.</p></div></div></noscript><div class="css-1dv1kvn" id="optimistic-truncator-a11y" tabindex="-1"><hr/><p>Thank you for your patience while we verify access.
