Like seriously I’ve seen multiple videos about it, positive ones but also ones lamenting and regretting it.
Do people not know this is a crapshoot and a gigantic meme?
Now they’re acting like this is a huge milestone and step forward for feminism when in reality it costs tens of thousands of dollars and has less than a 30% chance of delivering a live birth and this isn’t even getting into the health of the baby post birth.
I swear this is depressing it’s just another lie told to women/society about how you can simultaneously career chase and be a mother without making a sacrifice.
Hypothetically even if the process worked you’d be an older mother, be able to enjoy less time with your kids and not live to see their grandchildren grow.
The increasing parental age is a huge issue for every developed nation in the world

"After screening 1,540 references, a total of 27 studies encompassing 13,724 patients were included. Follow-up ranged from 4 to 19 years, with a median follow-up time of 7 years. A total of 17,418 oocyte retrieval cycles for planned fertility delay were reported, with most individuals undergoing a single cryopreservation cycle. Overall, 10.8% of individuals returned to thaw their eggs, with an aggregate oocyte survival rate of 81.4%. The implantation rate was 44.4% and clinical pregnancy rate was 34.2%. A live birth was reported for 28.9% of individuals across all age groups who returned to thaw eggs."
