How Fertility Changes Over Time
Fertility goes beyond mere age; it is influenced by medical factors along with egg quality and quantity. Know how time influences these elements and how it affects your fertility health.
Fertility isn’t just about age – It’s also shaped by egg quantity, quality, and health conditions—factors that change over time and impact your fertility health.
Egg Quantity
When you’re born, you have all the eggs you will ever have in your life. But, with age, this reserve gradually declines, thereby reducing fertility as well.
Egg Quality
With age, the number of abnormal eggs increases, leaving few healthy eggs for conception. The reduction becomes more prominent post 30.
Medical Factors
Fertility is largely impacted by conditions like low egg reserve, endometriosis, PCOS, and other medical treatments. Testing for your egg reserve helps you understand your options early on in case of any of these conditions.

Egg Freezing FAQs
By doing egg freezing, am I wasting eggs for future use?
Not at all. Your body creates a group of eggs each month, and only one can ovulate. Egg freezing helps to preserve some of these eggs that would not have been used.
When is a good age to freeze my eggs?
A good age to freeze your eggs is typically in your late 20s to early 30s. This is when egg quality and quantity are at their peak. But, you can also do it at a later stage depending on your fertility health, which can be checked with the help of female fertility testing.
How long can I freeze my eggs for?
Frozen eggs can be preserved for many years without losing quality. Advanced methods of vitrification will help eggs remain viable while you wait to use them in the future.
Does egg freezing mean I will definitely get pregnant later?
Egg freezing will significantly increase your chances of conceiving; however, the quality of eggs, your age at freezing and general reproductive health will be important factors influencing the overall outcome.
How many eggs do I need to freeze to have a chance at success?
There is no exact number of eggs that you need to freeze, as it depends on age and other medical issues. The recommended number, though, is around 10–20 mature eggs, which effectively increases the chances of a successful pregnancy.
Is the egg retrieval process painful?
The egg retrieval process is performed under anaesthesia, so there won’t be any pain during the procedure, but mild discomfort and bloating are normal side effects of the process, but temporary.
What are the risks of egg freezing?
Egg freezing procedure is a safe one but will carry some side effects. You may experience bloating, nausea and mild discomfort, especially during hormonal injections and egg retrieval. In extremely rare cases, there may be instances of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS).
How to freeze eggs?
Egg freezing starts with a basic AMH test and consultation, followed by ovarian stimulation and the egg retrieval process, and freezing (vitrification) the eggs for long-term storage.
Does egg freezing increase the risk of cancer?
There is no data to suggest egg freezing increases the risk of cancer. In fact, in the extensive research that has been done, there is no evidence linking fertility treatments to cancer.
Does egg freezing cause long-term hormonal imbalances?
The hormonal medications during egg freezing are temporary, so no, egg freezing will not cause long-term hormonal imbalances.
If I have already frozen my eggs, can I later change them to embryos?
Yes! You can thaw the frozen eggs and fertilise them with sperm to create embryos. We will subsequently transfer the embryo when you are ready for pregnancy.
Is embryo freezing better than egg freezing?
This is a situational option to consider. While embryo freezing has a slightly higher success rate, you will need a sperm source. Egg freezing offers flexibility if you’re not ready to make that decision yet.

Egg Freezing Cost & Location
Egg freezing cost in Mumbai is largely influenced by the location of the clinic, technology employed and the infrastructure. There are other factors as well, such as the patient’s age, number of cycles required and the duration of storing eggs.
Egg Freezing Side Effects & Safety
Once you are aware of what egg freezing is, it is important to understand the potential egg freezing side effects. While the egg freezing process is a safe one, it impacts the body in certain ways, like bloating, nausea, mild discomfort from hormonal injections or during the egg retrieval procedure. These however are temporary effects, which do not last for long.
At Luma, you are in the hands of compassionate and expert doctors who prioritise your safety and comfort. With advanced techniques, close monitoring and minimal invasive retrieval methods, we try to mitigate risks at every step.
Egg Freezing Age Limit & Timing
As is known, age greatly impacts the egg quality and quantity. With a drop in ovarian reserve and the quality of eggs, egg freezing time limit is a major factor influencing the success rate. While there is no age limit for the egg freezing procedure, typically late 20s or early 30s works the best, given that the eggs are at their peak.
Common Concerns on Egg Freezing
If you’re wondering about the egg freezing process, how safe it is, the egg freezing age limit or the egg freezing cost in Mumbai, here we are with answers to some of your concerns.
What is egg freezing and how does it work?
Egg freezing is also called Oocytecryopreservation. This is a fertility preservation technique under the ART Act (Assisted Reproduction Technique Act). The egg freezing process involves stimulation of ovaries to produce multiple eggs of a cycle in a woman’s body, followed by surgical retrieval of the matured eggs. These eggs are then preserved by freezing them in liquid nitrogen and can be thawed and fertilized with sperm to create embryos later when required.
If you wish to start a family later in life, or wish to focus on your career now, the egg freezing process allows you to decide on motherhood at a time of your will.
What is the egg freezing procedure step by step?
The egg freezing procedure is a 4-step process that begins with a fertility assessment, followed by ovarian stimulation with at-home hormone injections that supports optimal egg development. The next step is egg retrieval, which is a quick procedure conducted under light anaesthesia. The egg freezing process concludes with safe storage of the eggs with a timely update on egg quality.
How much does egg freezing cost in Mumbai / India?
Egg freezing cost in India varies based on various factors, primarily the clinic and its infrastructure, freezing technology and other inclusions if any. It may range anywhere from 100,000 to 225,000. Age is one of the factors that may increase the egg freezing cost in India – older the patient, lower is the ovarian reserve, which will require higher doses or multiple cycles for egg retrieval. Similarly egg freezing cost in Mumbai depends on the area, patient’s age, storage duration etc.
What risks or side effects should women expect from egg freezing?
The egg freezing process is usually safe, but it is important to be aware of certain egg freezing side effects. Some women may experience mild discomfort, nausea, bloating, and in rare cases Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome (OHSS). Other egg freezing side effects might be experienced during egg retrieval, like bleeding, reaction to anaesthesia or infection. Egg freezing also reduces the chances of a natural pregnancy, and an IVF might be required in the future.
Will choosing egg freezing reduce the egg reserve?
While multiple eggs are retrieved during egg freezing, it does not reduce your egg reserve. The eggs that are retrieved are the ones that you would have lost during your menstrual cycle. Every month, your body creates multiple eggs, from which only one is released and the rest lost. Egg freezing takes out some of these eggs, hence it does not impact your reserve.
Can I get pregnant naturally after egg freezing?
Definitely, you can get pregnant naturally even after you choose egg freezing because the procedure does not affect your fertility or natural conception. You will have a normal period and will still ovulate and conceive naturally after the process.
