The idea of freezing eggs has become popular in recent years, as females want to preserve the healthier eggs for use in later years to conceive. There can be many reasons for getting your eggs frozen. You might not be ready to get married or start a family soon, so you can opt for freezing your eggs so that even after some years you can use them.
In Bollywood or television industry, many actresses have followed this route. While some have opened up, while some have not. So here are some celebrities who had gone through the egg freezing process. Actresses like Mona Singh, Rakhi Sawant, and most recently Tanishaa Mukerji have opened up on it.
Tanishaa Mukerji
In an interview with ETimes TV, Tanishaa Mukerji opened up about freezing her eggs at 39. She said, “I wanted to freeze my eggs at the age of 33! At that time, when I went to my doctor (who finally froze my eggs now)… it’s funny but she stopped me from doing so at that time. While she told me it takes a toll on your body, she advised I should do it when I have no hope of conceiving a baby.” She also said that she put on a lot of weight due to the procedure but now she is back in shape. “Post the procedure, I wanted to become fit. I started a hardcore regime. I have always been a physically fit person. I followed a diet that suits my body and became more aware as a person. In that process, I got a six-pack,” added Tanishaa.
