Scientists caution against idea of fertility ‘insurance policy’ after Jennifer Aniston advice to freeze eggs
Jennifer Aniston revealed this week that she was trying to get pregnant through IVF at a time when tabloids were obsessively speculating about whether she would have children. The actor told Allure magazine she felt relief now that “the ship has sailed”, but that “I would’ve given anything if someone had said to me: ‘Freeze your eggs. Do yourself a favour.’”
Aniston has been widely praised for speaking out about a side to IVF that is not often talked about, but experts cautioned against the idea that freezing eggs is an “insurance policy”.
