  • Egg freezing empowers women to preserve fertility, whether for personal, medical, or career reasons.
  • Women with conditions like PCOS may benefit from early fertility assessment and planning.

A Modern Shift in Fertility Choices

Reality TV star and influencer Paige DeSorbo recently opened up about her decision to freeze her eggs, sharing that it gave her a sense of relief and control over her future. Like many women today, Paige is balancing a thriving career, personal growth, and evolving life goals—and she’s not alone in making proactive choices about fertility.

Her story reflects a growing trend: more women are exploring egg freezing not just because they’re “not ready,” but because they want to plan for the future on their own terms.

What Is Egg Freezing?

Egg freezing, also called oocyte cryopreservation, is a process where eggs are retrieved from the ovaries, frozen, and stored for future use. When a woman is ready to try for pregnancy, the eggs can be thawed, fertilized, and transferred during an IVF cycle.

At Reproductive Partners Fertility Center- San Diego, egg freezing is a key part of our fertility preservation services. With advanced lab technology and individualized care, we help patients preserve their reproductive potential with confidence and clarity.

Who Should Consider Freezing Their Eggs?

While egg freezing is often associated with women delaying motherhood for career or personal reasons, there are many valid motivations:
  • You want to have children in the future but aren’t ready right now
  • You’ve been diagnosed with PCOS, endometriosis, or other reproductive conditions
  • You have a family history of early menopause or infertility
  • You’re starting fertility-impacting treatments like chemotherapy
  • You want the peace of mind that comes from having options

Paige DeSorbo’s Experience: PCOS and Taking Control

In addition to wanting to plan for the future, Paige revealed that she has PCOS (polycystic ovary syndrome)—a hormonal condition that can impact ovulation and long-term fertility. PCOS is one of the most common causes of infertility in women, and early fertility evaluation can be especially helpful.

At RPSD, we help women with PCOS understand their reproductive health and create proactive strategies for fertility preservation and family-building.

Is Egg Freezing Right for You?

The ideal time to freeze eggs is typically in your late 20s to early 30s, when egg quantity and quality are highest. However, every patient is different. If you’re in your 30s or have a condition like PCOS, it’s not too late to explore your options.

During a consultation, our fertility specialists will:
  • Review your medical history
  • Evaluate your ovarian reserve with AMH and ultrasound
  • Discuss your reproductive goals
  • Develop a personalized plan that aligns with your timeline and values
