Empowering Fertility: Humans of Bombay CEO Karishma Mehta Breaks Silence on Egg Freezing Journey

Karishma Mehta, the 32-year-old CEO of Humans of Bombay, has recently spoken out about her experience with egg freezing as a "hard process" but a valuable "insurance policy" against lost fertility. Mehta, who had frozen her eggs early in January, highlighted the importance of the procedure for unmarried women with uncertain timelines for having a family. The process, also referred to as oocyte cryopreservation, entails hormone injections, routine monitoring, and an outpatient retrieval procedure. Mehta's openness has set off discussions regarding family-career balance and reproductive options. Her choice is part of a trend among professional women to safeguard their fertility choices as they pursue personal and career aspirations.
