Would you freeze your eggs during medical school?

6/29/2010 5:56:30 PM

Research released this week suggests that 8 out of 10 female medical students in the U.K. would freeze their eggs as a way to prolong fertility as they pursue their career. The study was released at the annual meeting of the European Society of Human Reproduction and Embryology, currently underway in Rome.

This left us wondering how American medical students feel about this. Let's say the procedure was affordable (according to the LA Times, the procedure can top $12,000 per cycle!), would you consider freezing your eggs while you finish medical school and residency?
