Egg freezing startups like Extend Fertility may be a democratizing force to give women more child-bearing options. CEO Anne Hogarty discusses how Extend Fertility is giving women more choice through affordable egg freezing. As with any business designed to give women more choice, controversy abounds! Critics have a lot of questions: Is it ethical? Manipulative? Safe? Gimmicky?

You’ll hear:

Why are fertility treatments like in vitro fertilization (IVF) so expensive?
What are the unique advantages of egg freezing? What are the limitations?
Is egg freezing a “bandaid?” Should we, instead, make it easier for women to have children while having a career?
Should we be concerned that egg freezing businesses prey on women’s concerns about having children? Or is it unfair to suggest that women can’t assess their situations for themselves?
Why has there been pushback from making egg freezing more affordable?
Why did Extend Fertility upset so many when they advertised their services on Instagram?
What are typical success rates for egg freezing?
