Fertility Myths vs Facts: Egg Freezing, IVF, & What Every Woman Should Know

Fertility is one of those topics that’s either avoided entirely—or turned into a fear-fueled spiral online. So we’re cutting through the noise. Molly and Emese sit down with Dr. Lucky Sekhon (reproductive endocrinologist and author of The Lucky Egg) for a clear, science-backed conversation about what every woman deserves to understand: how fertility actually works, what’s myth vs. fact, and what to do if you’re feeling overwhelmed, behind, or panicked by the “biological clock” narrative. We get into the truths behind AMH and ovarian reserve, egg quality vs. egg quantity, and the real-world decision making around egg freezing—including the best age window, what the process really feels like, and why it’s not a guarantee, but can be a powerful option. Dr. Lucky also breaks down how far IVF has come—why success rates have improved, how genetic testing can lower miscarriage risk, and we debunk the biggest fears we keep hearing. If you’re in your 20s thinking ahead, in your 30s asking “what now?”, or in your 40s trying to stay hopeful, this episode is your no-shame, no-gatekeeping fertility roadmap—built on facts, compassion, and the truth that you’re not a statistic.
