The average cost of freezing your eggs can range from $10,000 to $15,000. The majority of this cost is typically the fee for the retrieval procedure, which can be around $7,500. There are also other associated costs such as the initial consultation fee, storage fees, and medication costs. Some insurance companies will cover some of these costs if you have a medical reason for freezing your eggs, such as cancer treatment that may affect your fertility.

The Success Rates Of Freezing Eggs

The success rates of freezing eggs depend on a number of factors including the age of the woman when she freezes her eggs and the method used to freeze them. When done correctly, egg freezing can be up to 98% successful in preserving eggs. However, it's important to note that frozen eggs are not guaranteed to result in a pregnancy and that success rates decline with age.

The Process Of Freezing Eggs

The process of freezing eggs begins with a consultation with a fertility specialist to determine if you are a good candidate for egg freezing. If you are deemed a good candidate, you will then undergo hormone therapy to stimulate egg production before having theeggs retrieved through a minor surgical procedure called follicular aspiration. Once the eggs are retrieved, they will be frozen using either cryopreservation or vitrification methods.
