The Egg Freezing Boom

A record number of people are freezing their eggs to try to have a baby later in life. But 成人快手 analysis has found some private clinics could be misleading about success rates.

A leading fertility charity says women who freeze their eggs are being misled by some clinics about success rates. The Fertility Network has responded to 成人快手 analysis, which found 41% of UK fertility clinics offering the service privately could be in breach of advertising guidance.

Egg freezing for non-medical reasons, also known as social egg freezing, is an increasingly popular method for women to preserve their fertility in order to have children at a later date.

The procedure is not normally available on the NHS unless you are having medical treatment which could affect your fertility.

In this episode of 5 Minutes On, Investigative reporter for 成人快手 News Anna Collinson hears from some women who have gone through the egg freezing process, and the problems they faced along the way.
