The important thing is education, knowledge about your current fertility and being aware of the options you have to take control of your reproductive future. Egg freezing is a power move that allows you to dance to your own life’s rhythm, not the biological clock. It’s time to write your own destiny.
-
You can get started immediately. Egg freezing is a relatively straightforward process that can begin at any stage of your cycle.
If your 30 and have 12 eggs frozen, you’re almost guaranteed to have at least one child. To have similar chances at the age of 36, you would need to freeze 25 eggs, which could require several egg freezing cycles.
We want time on our side to create healthy embryos that create healthy babies. We want to freeze early to give you a better chance to conceive and reduce costs with less cycles required.
If we focus on freezing before 35, we have younger, healthier eggs suspended in time and solid options down the track.
Eggs are snap frozen at minus 196 degrees Celsius, stored in liquid nitrogen and do not deteriorate over time. Advanced vitrification technology translates to at least 90-95% survival rate for good quality eggs. This incredible technology also allows for frozen donor eggs to yield good quality pregnancy rates for recipients.
Australians can store eggs and embryos on average for 10-15 years with no medical reason to discard.
There are no associated risks with egg freezing to your overall health. The actual egg extraction procedure carries a very small (less than 5%) risk of short-term complications like bleeding or infection, as with ANY surgical procedure.
Worried about hormones? Don’t be. We’re amplifying hormones that your body produces naturally and levels return to normal after the first period following collection. There’s no increased risk of breast or ovarian cancer doing an egg freezing cycle.
Egg freezing does not lower your age of menopause or increase your risk of infertility on the future.
Who is social egg freezing for?
Social egg freezing gives you choices over your future fertility. If you aren’t ready to be a parent, or are unsure if you ever want to be a parent, social egg freezing gives you time to decide what’s right for you. Social egg freezing is for healthy people under the age of 38. Still not sure if it’s right for you? Learn more about FOCUS Fertility and what we offer here.

Fertility facts
Maternal age is increasing with women aged 30-34 years being the most common group to give birth for the first time.¹
Age is the biggest factor impacting female fertility²
On average female fertility starts to decline in her early 30s.²
A woman in her early to mid-20s has a 25-30% chance of getting pregnant each month.²
By age 40, there is a 5% chance of getting pregnant each month.²
Women are born with all the eggs they will ever have – around 1-2 million eggs.
By the time puberty starts, there are around 300,000 to 400,000 eggs remaining.
Each month the number of eggs decrease in quantity.
A deterioration in quality happens over the lifespan.³
25% of eggs are abnormal at age 28
40% of eggs are abnormal at age 35
75-80% of eggs are abnormal at age 42
EGG FREEZING FACTS
Social (elective) egg freezing has increased dramatically in Australia over recent years⁴
Age at the time of egg freezing is the biggest indicator of success⁵
Frozen eggs and fresh eggs have the same expected outcomes for child health⁶
Egg freezing does not damage your ovaries or compromise your fertility⁷
Freezing eggs before the age of 35 have live birth rates of approximately 50–60%. After age 40, success rates drop below 20%.⁵
The most common reason given for social egg freezing is the lack of a partner.⁸
Better egg freezing technology improved the survival rate of frozen eggs which is 74% on average.⁹
