Should I consider egg freezing now that I can? (ft Minister of State, Ms Sun Xueling) | Hush Podcast
Elective egg-freezing will soon be allowed in Singapore for women aged 21 to 35 years old, starting in 2023. As we celebrate this new milestone, there have also been critics of the new policy. While it is impossible to determine the success rate of the policy, we want to highlight one important message: Taking care of our own bodies. In this episode of Hush podcast, Hazelle, Azura, and Germaine meet with Minister of State, Ms. Sun Xue Ling to speak about her experiences and thoughts on fertility health and pregnancy in her thirties.
