Fertility specialists at Nova discuss the rise in social egg freezing queries, at least 10 queries a month

Bengaluru, 1st December 2024:  Nova IVF Fertility, a leading fertility chain in India, organized an insightful fertility conference at Hotel Taj Bengaluru on 1st December 2024, in collaboration with the Bengaluru Society of Obstetrics & Gynaecology (BSOG). About 200-250 prominent obstetricians, gynaecologists, and fertility professionals discussed the evolving trends in Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART).

Lifestyle factors like smoking, excessive drinking, sedentary lifestyle, and having irregular sleep cycles have been linked to infertility issues These elements have the potential to disrupt the hormonal balance, which might lead to infertility issues. Additionally, a growing trend of delaying parenthood for reasons like career focus or difficulty finding the right partner has led to more couples having children later.

In this scenario, there is a rise in queries related to procedures like egg freezing. Egg freezing is a fertility preservation method in which a woman's eggs are retrieved, frozen, and preserved for future use. This procedure preserves the quality of the eggs despite age-related deterioration, enabling women to postpone motherhood for personal or medical reasons. After being stimulated by hormones to mature several eggs in the ovaries, the eggs are extracted by a simple procedure. When needed, the frozen eggs are thawed, fertilized with sperm, and used for an IVF procedure to achieve pregnancy.

Emphasizing on egg freezing for medical reasons, *Dr Aviva Pinto Rodrigues, Fertility Specialist at Nova IVF Fertility, Basaveshwarnagar, Bengaluru said*, “While Egg freezing is being popular for social reasons, medical reasons for egg freezing needs to be given more importance as well, as women battling certain medical conditions like cancer may certainly have issues conceiving.  Egg freezing is crucial for patients facing conditions such as cancer, endometriosis, a genetic history of early menopause, or taking medications that may impact fertility. Endometriosis can lower ovarian reserve (the number and quality of eggs) as it progresses. Egg freezing allows women to preserve their fertility by storing healthy eggs early, ensuring options for future pregnancy, even if the condition worsens or surgery impacts the ovaries. Many patients are unaware that treatments for certain conditions might affect their fertility, it is important that doctors recommend egg freezing at the right time.”

*Dr Mahesh Koregol, Fertility Specialist at Nova IVF Fertility, Koramangala, Bengaluru mentioned* “Research says that Indian women’s ovaries age 6 years faster compared to western women.  As women age, their eggs quality and quantity declines, making it harder to conceive. Women are mostly freezing their eggs these days because they haven’t found the right partner, career, and they might be separated from their husband. The age group of women seeking egg is mostly early to mid-30s. This trend reflects that women are aware of the biological clock and have a proactive approach to managing their reproductive health.”
