Egg freezing, according to the Cleveland Clinic, is a form of fertility preservation for women. The report stated that “fertility preservation preserves eggs, sperm, or reproductive tissue so that you can have a biological child in the future.”
It is useful for people with medical conditions that affect fertility, such as cancer. People also choose it for personal reasons, such as age or a desire to delay starting a family.
