Did You Know? Ovaries Can Go Bankrupt

Did you know? When an embryo forms, it already has 7 million eggs—but don’t be too quick to celebrate or assume your ovaries are wealthy! Even before birth, eggs go through massive natural selection. By the time you’re born, only about 2 million eggs remain to enter the world with you—5 million already lost. And […]

Symptoms and Management of Premature Ovarian Failure

Ovarian function typically declines around age 45, but more women are experiencing “premature ovarian insufficiency” between ages 30–35, leading to early menopause and reduced fertility. Symptoms include irregular cycles, shortened cycles that later lengthen until menstruation stops, reduced menstrual flow, and hot flashes. AMH blood testing can measure egg reserve. Common causes include family history, ovarian surgery, chromosomal abnormalities, and ovarian disease. Women with early decline who wish to conceive should seek medical help promptly; those without immediate plans may consider egg freezing to preserve fertility.

Do Human Eggs Have an Expiration Date?

Eggs gradually age with time, reducing pregnancy rates. While they cannot be “rejuvenated,” advanced vitrification technology can “freeze” them at their optimal state, significantly improving survival and pregnancy success rates. The quality of egg freezing, thawing techniques, and strict SOP controls are critical factors. Planning fertility early allows you to take better control of your life’s timeline.

Don’t assume that having a period means you’re ovulating.

Egg freezing allows you to preserve young and healthy eggs in advance; the younger you are, the better the quality and the higher the success rate. A simple blood test for AMH can reveal your egg reserve, and early planning enables you to take control of your reproductive choices. Whether for personal use or donation, it helps preserve more possibilities for the future.
