Can I still freeze my eggs at 40?

Egg quality diminishes as the woman ages. Such decrease is more apparent from age 35, and that is the reason why the general recommendation is to cryopreserve them before this age. By doing this, their quality will be higher, and subsequently their survival rates, and the chances of getting pregnant in the future.
