What It's Really Like To Freeze Your Eggs: Amanda Tells All

We're switching things up this week with a cozy virtual episode from our homes while Amanda recovers from her egg retrieval! In honor of Amanda's egg freezing journey, we're dedicating this week's episode to what you can actually expect if you're considering freezing your eggs. Amanda shares why she decided to do it, how much it cost, what insurance actually covered, what you should realistically budget for, how long the process takes, what the injections were like, the most painful part of the experience, and how recovery has been so far. If you've been curious about egg freezing, this is the honest, unfiltered conversation she wished she'd had before starting the process.
