I’m so excited to share this replay of my conversation with Dr. Susan Fox on her podcast, Heath Youniversity. In this episode, we dive into the world of egg freezing, a topic I’m passionate about as “The Egg Whisperer.” Susan and I cover everything you need to know about fertility preservation, from the egg freezing process to the importance of building a supportive fertility TEAM. We also discuss programs like “Freeze and Share” and how they can help you preserve your fertility while helping others. Whether you’re thinking about egg freezing or just want to learn more about reproductive health, I think you’ll find this episode packed with valuable tips and information.
