Cost of freezing eggs

Many people have heard that women should have children as early as possible because young women have the best quality eggs and a higher probability of pregnancy. However, nowadays, more and more people are marrying late and having children later. Many people are unwilling to have a baby too early, but the quality of eggs is not very good when they are older, so freezing eggs has become an option for many women. How much does it cost to freeze your eggs?

Since you want to freeze your eggs, you need to understand the price of freezing eggs.

In my country, the most expensive part of freezing eggs is the use of ovulation-stimulating drugs and the initial comprehensive examinations. The whole process costs about 7,000 to 8,000 RMB. For rapid freezing of eggs, whether it is for individual egg germ cells or more than 20 egg germ cells, the fee is 1,200 yuan each time. Conversely, the fee for unfreezing is 800 yuan, and there is no limit on the total amount. The process of thawing the IVF embryo and placing it into the uterine cavity costs 1,200 yuan. For placing frozen eggs in a liquid nitrogen tank at minus 196 degrees Celsius, the monthly fee is 110 yuan, or 1320 yuan a year.

This means that the cost of egg freezing treatment in my country is about 10,000 yuan, while the storage cost is only 1,000 yuan per year.

Who is suitable for freezing eggs?

1. Women who are under 35 years old but who are considering giving birth after 35 years old for various reasons can freeze their ovarian tissue before 35 years old, because freezing after 35 years old is not very meaningful, as the ovarian reserve function has been significantly reduced at this time.

2. Women whose ovaries have aged due to chromosomes, autoimmune diseases, infections, tumors, etc.;

3. Women who have undergone large-scale systemic radiotherapy or chemotherapy for tumors, or who have undergone multiple surgical treatments for severe or advanced ovarian cysts, resulting in ovarian damage;

4. Adolescents and children who have not responded to other freezing methods;

5. Those with reproductive system infections. Most patients with reproductive system infections have pelvic inflammatory disease, which damages the function of both fallopian tubes in women and significantly reduces the quality of eggs.

Although technology is developing more and more nowadays, freezing eggs can allow women to have children at an older age, but frozen eggs are not more active than fresh eggs, and require higher technology. Therefore, the author believes that it is best for women to choose natural childbirth.
