MY EXPERIENCE WITH EGG FREEZING
For those considering it and those that are just curious about it.
It is NOT for the fainthearted! Some may say different but I can only speak from my experience as a black 33yo single woman.

This is makes me sad because a London club without a single black player. Not a dig at any of the women in this photo but man, representation matters. I will NEVER forget the impact representation in Arsenal and Charlton had on me as a little black girl growing up in London

Step 21: END OF THE JOURNEY
Had follow up with fertility dr today regarding the Violet report. Turns out, the last report was an error due to an apparent ‘software bug’ 😒 *STRONGEST SIDE EYE*
Corrected report says 86% chance of 6-12 embryos

It is NOT for the fainthearted! Im emotionally,mentally,physically and spiritually drained. Grateful to have this as a fallback plan. My heart truly goes out to those who have/had to go through treatment because of infertility and as a last resort. I can only imagine 😢

5 years a Torontonian 🤯 but still a Londoner at heart!
I landed in Toronto on Saturday 13th January 2018 from London 🇬🇧 It was -15 degrees Celsius and there had been a snow storm. I got my 2 year work permit upon arrival and what was meant to be just 2 years is now FIVE

Step 1: Referral from gynaecologist to a fertility doctor
Process may vary from country to country, province to province. I did it in Toronto, Ontario, Canada
While I am here, ladies, please get a gynae if you don’t have one!
And so the Fertility Treatment (Egg Freezing) journey begins 🙏🏾
Saw my Gynaecologist today and she has put in a referral to one of the fertility doctors she recommends to her patients. The fertility clinic will contact me for an appointment. All tests and examinations done there

Step 4: Appointment with fertility doctor to go through assessment results and your individual protocol
Goal: stimulate, retrieve and freeze close to 20 eggs
- 80% will be mature
- 70% of those frozen
Fibroids only impact egg retrieval if they impact accessibility to ovaries
12-June-2023
Met my fertility doctor for the first time. Went through
- medical history
- family history
- lifestyle questions
- therapy resources
- review of blood test results
- review of ultrasound results
- overview of fertility outlook and next steps to kick off treatment

NOTE - None of above guarantees a baby,nothing is 100% predictive
Dr advised based on research
70% of frozen eggs will survive thawing
70% of eggs that survive thawing will fertilise
Of the fertilised,only a subset will make embryos
4 embryos,80% chance of a baby
