Fertility preservation, also known as egg freezing, gives women the opportunity to preserve their fertility, whether it be for personal or medical reasons. Some might choose to delay pregnancy until they've found the right partner or until after they've established themselves in the workplace, and others choose fertility preservation ahead of chemo, radiation, or other medical interventions.

Progyny provides information about fertility preservation through podcast episodes, informational videos with fertility doctors, and articles reviewing the different aspects that come along with a women's choice to freeze her eggs.
