Today, egg freezing has become a popular option for women who aren’t ready to have children yet. Whether due to lifestyle choices or career paths, many women are choosing to marry and have children later in life. However, as women age, the quality of their eggs declines. That’s why many opt to freeze their eggs while they’re still young. So where’s the best place to freeze your eggs, and how do you choose the right clinic or doctor? Let’s find out.

Where to Freeze Eggs: How to Choose a Clinic

When choosing a place to freeze your eggs, look for a trustworthy, reputable clinic. You’re entrusting them with your reproductive cells—potential future children—so reliability is key.

For example, at Beyond IVF, they have specialized doctors in reproductive medicine and a team of experienced, well-trained embryologists. Their egg retrieval and storage processes follow high standards, and their lab facilities are sterile and meet hospital-level safety standards.

Why Choosing the Right Doctor Matters

Selecting a qualified doctor is crucial. When deciding where to freeze your eggs, consider the doctor’s experience and expertise in fertility treatment.

At Beyond IVF, their expert is Dr. Ton – Prof. Poonsak Suchanwanich, a specialist with over 20 years of experience in reproductive medicine. His credentials include:

  • Board certification in obstetrics and gynecology from Ramathibodi Hospital
  • ART (Assisted Reproductive Technology) training from Boston IVF, Maryland
  • Certified fertility specialist by the Thai Society of Reproductive Medicine

Clinic vs. Hospital: What’s the Difference?

Freezing your eggs at a clinic often means shorter wait times than at hospitals, where you may wait months for an appointment. Clinics usually offer:

  • Advance bookings
  • VIP-style care with personal attention and follow-up
  • Prompt answers to all your questions
  • Organized scheduling to avoid crowding
  • COVID-19 screening before entry

This makes clinics a better option for many who value privacy, convenience, and time efficiency.

What to Look for When Reading Egg Freezing Reviews

When deciding where to freeze your eggs, keep these 8 factors in mind:

  1. Facility Standards
    The clinic should be clean, secure, and meet high medical standards to ensure your eggs are safe.
  2. Doctor’s Expertise
    Make sure the doctor is a certified reproductive specialist with significant experience to minimize risks and complications.
  3. Qualified Embryology Team
    The team should be well-trained and able to clearly explain the procedures and answer your questions.
  4. Technology & Equipment
    As egg freezing is a modern medical technique, up-to-date, clean, and safe equipment is essential.
  5. Clear Process Steps
    Understanding each step of the procedure helps you prepare mentally and physically for what to expect.
  6. Scheduling & Time Management
    Choose a clinic that allows precise scheduling to avoid wasting time waiting in long queues.
  7. Aftercare & Follow-up Support
    Find out how the clinic handles post-procedure care. If emergencies arise, who can you contact?
  8. Convenient Location
    A clinic near your home reduces travel stress during the treatment and makes emergency visits easier.

Body Mass Index calculator

Being overweight or underweight can reduce fertility, so it is important to keep your body weight within the normal healthy range.

Body Mass Index (BMI) is an indication of your body weight and can be calculated by dividing weight by height. You should aim for a BMI of between 20 and 25, as this will optimise your chances of conception.

Woman’s BMI below 19

Even in these modern times, nature knows best. If a woman's BMI falls below 19, the body senses famine and ovulation is switched off to prevent the risk of having a baby with malnutrition. Excessive exercise can reduce body fat and increase muscle mass to a point where periods cease for the same reason. Risk of miscarriage is also increased in women with a low BMI.

Being underweight

If a woman's BMI falls below 19, the body senses famine and ovulation is switched off to prevent the risk of having a baby with malnutrition. Excessive exercise can reduce body fat and increase muscle mass to a point where periods cease for the same reason. Risk of miscarriage is also increased in women with a low BMI.

BMI’s greater than 30

This can reduce fertility by 50%. Pregnancy for women with a 30+ BMI is often associated with problems such as maternal diabetes, high blood pressure, big babies and increased risk of caesarean section.
