Nice find. But this post might have also fit in as part of a larger thread we have on the subject: "Woman Coughs Up 50 Grand To Freeze Eggs, Encourages Other Women To Do Same."
https://www.rooshvforum.com/thread-23596.html
That thread centered around Brigitte Adams, who was in her late 30s when she appeared on the cover of Bloomberg Businessweek in 2013 for a story that touted the benefits of egg freezing. Five years later, she found egg freezing doesn't work -- for reasons cited in this thread's article.
So, despite being a magazine cover girl, Brigitte remains as barren as the Sahara.
That's a shame.

In this latest installment of the Egg Freezing Soap Opera (which is what it is), we learn the following at the beginning of the Washington Post article:
"Editor’s Note: This is the second episode of “Should I Freeze My Eggs?,” in which Washington Post filmmaker Nicole Ellis explores using the technology to plan her future family. Here is the first episode."
This is media-sanctioned mental illness, folks. It's the equivalent of an article on me "planning my future at NASCAR" if I had neither a car or a driver's license. If I was spending money and time doing that, people would question my sanity. Same should go for this woman.
In small towns all over the world, teenagers meet, f*ck in the backseat of a car and become parents. In other towns, they go to college, meet and marry and have kids.
This is not that hard. It's not brain surgery. If a woman can't do something as simple as this, I question her mental stability and wonder about her personality. This means she doesn't get along well with people and that's a major red flag for divorce.

One more thing. From the article:
"I felt paralyzed as Dr. Devine read my results out loud. Our meeting lasted an hour, but three words echoed in my mind throughout: “low ovarian reserve.” It would take at least three cycles of egg freezing, along with possibly high doses of hormones each time, to give me a decent shot at bearing a child from the frozen eggs down the road."
The use of supplemental hormones on women during menopause has
been found to cause cancer. This kind of hormone replacement therapy seems very similar.

So let's tally this all up:
1). The medical establishment touted egg freezing as a major breakthrough.
Conclusion: It didn't work. To the tune of $19 grand for some women.
2). The medical establishment "didn't know" that hormone replacement therapy caused cancer when they prescribed it
en masse to women in the 2000s.
Conclusion: Oops.
3). The medical establishment is now pushing the same hormones on women because their own "breakthrough" of frozen eggs went sour.
Conclusion: Maybe screwing Billy in the backseat after the senior prom is the best bet for women after all.
