And if you want future fertility, freeze, freeze, freeze before 30 and know your egg count.

Oh, always.

Female Hormone Health, PCOS, Endometriosis, Fertility & Breast Cancer | Dr. Thaïs Aliabadi
I always freeze because you need one good egg.
Huberman Lab
Female Hormone Health, PCOS, Endometriosis, Fertility & Breast Cancer | Dr. Thaïs Aliabadi
Mm-hmm.

Female Hormone Health, PCOS, Endometriosis, Fertility & Breast Cancer | Dr. Thaïs Aliabadi
And you don't know if you're going to get it or not, but freeze.

And PCOS patients, the beauty of it is they have all these follicles so we can pull out a lot of eggs.

Now, the quality might not be good, but keep pulling it.

So for my PCOS patients, generally speaking, I always tell my patients freeze 20 eggs because 20 is safe.

But as you get older, especially if you have PCOS, I might want 40 eggs.

You know, the more you have, because I know the quality is not that good.

And I mean, it doesn't even make financial sense at that point to do it, to pay $10,000, $15,000, $20,000.

Female Hormone Health, PCOS, Endometriosis, Fertility & Breast Cancer | Dr. Thaïs Aliabadi
I think in Northern California, it goes up to like $35,000.

I mean, imagine for one cycle to get two eggs out.
Huberman Lab
Female Hormone Health, PCOS, Endometriosis, Fertility & Breast Cancer | Dr. Thaïs Aliabadi
No, this is amazing.
