Episode notes
Faye's Personal Reason For Freezing At 26
- Faye froze eggs at 26 partly to reduce pressure around partner timing and future family planning.
- She framed it as creating protections and options, not an insurance policy she expects to use immediately.
Use Home Semen Tests Only As A Screen
- Use at‑home semen kits only as a first screen; they miss sperm morphology so abnormal results will still need lab analysis.
- If at-home results are normal twice, lab testing may not be necessary immediately.
Ask To Tailor Protocols And Reduce Injections
- Tell your clinic if you are needle phobic; protocols can reduce injection burden using oral progesterone instead of some injections.
- Rotate injection sites, use thighs as alternatives, and ask nurses for technique tips to reduce bruising.
