Jessica Kahawati shares her egg-freezing journey: It is my dream to become a mother and I do not want to give it up because I am late

I am known to be a privacy person and I feel that these are all personal decisions. When I shared my story today, I received thousands of comments from women, girls, and men saying how much they appreciated me sharing such a taboo topic. With the help of technology, we are able to make better decisions for ourselves. I did this for a number of reasons including a thyroid problem so I wanted to protect my eggs for the future. It’s my dream to become a mother and I don’t want to give that up because I’m a few years late. Does it hurt? sometimes. Was it difficult? Also sometimes. Whatever you choose to do, do it for yourself.”
