After the ovaries are stimulated to grow several follicles, the next step is collecting the eggs.

One of the questions Dr Alexander is often asked is how eggs are actually collected for freezing.

He explains how the ovaries are stimulated to bring several follicles forward at once, rather than the single egg that matures in a natural cycle, and what that process involves.

The number of eggs needed to give a good chance of a healthy pregnancy can vary with age.

Understanding how those numbers work helps anyone considering egg freezing know what to expect and make a decision that is right for them. It is one of the things Dr Alexander talks through in appointments so the patient has a clear picture.

When it comes to egg freezing, quality matters more than numbers.

Before the process begins, Dr Alexander looks at lifestyle and other factors that can support better egg quality and maturation. A smaller number of good quality eggs can offer a better outcome than a larger number of lower quality ones.

'If I have 15 eggs from a young woman and produce one or two good quality embryos, that gives her potentially one or two babies. If the quality is not there, no matter the numbers, it is not going to happen.'

Dr Alexander takes a considered view of egg freezing, where the quality of the eggs counts for more than the quantity collected. It shapes how he guides patients through the process and what to expect from it.

This is one of the topics he covers in the latest episode of 'In Good Hands,' on egg freezing.
