About this listen

Have you ever thought about egg freezing?


Almost half of Gen Z say they’re worried about their future fertility, in a report from fertility benefits company Apryl. Egg freezing is the fastest growing fertility treatment in the UK. For many people, freezing your eggs feels like a bit of an insurance policy, and could let you have children in the future. But is it always that simple? I’m Mary, and in this episode, I explore why young people are more aware of their fertility, and how freezing your eggs actually works. Love Island’s India Reyonolds shares her fertility journey. And I speak to her cousin Isla, a fertility midwife, who tells me how the process works. Plus, insight from Dr Catherine Hill, from Fertility Network UK.
