Thinking About Egg Freezing? Let’s Talk

Posted on February 11, 2026by RSC Staff

Egg freezing is no longer a “niche” topic—but misinformation is everywhere. If you’re curious about fertility preservation and want real answers, realistic expectations, and a clearer plan, join Reproductive Specialists of the Carolinas (RSC) for a relaxed, in-person conversation led by Dr. Matrika Johnson.

We’ll break down what egg freezing is, what it isn’t, and what to consider—without pressure, judgment, or overwhelming medical jargon. Expect a welcoming space, light bites, and plenty of time for Q&A.

Who this event is for

This event is designed for anyone who’s considering egg freezing and wants a straightforward, supportive conversation—whether you’re:

  • Not ready to build your family yet, but want to keep options open.
  • Navigating career, school, relationships, or life timing
  • Thinking ahead because of age-related fertility concerns
  • Exploring fertility preservation for medical reasons
  • Building a family as an LGBTQ+ individual/couple or as a single parent-by-choice
  • Simply wanting evidence-based education before you decide what’s next.

What we’ll cover

You’ll leave with a clearer understanding of:

  • What egg freezing actually involves—from start to finish
  • What to expect with timelines, monitoring, and the egg retrieval process
  • Common myths vs. medical realities
  • How age and ovarian reserve can influence outcomes (and why “sooner” isn’t the only factor)
  • The kinds of questions to ask a fertility specialist so you can make a decision that fits your goals
  • Practical next steps if you want to move forward (including how to think about costs and planning)

What to expect that evening

This is a casual, welcoming event—think cocktails + light bites, with honest conversation (not a sales pitch). You’ll have time to ask questions, hear what others are considering, and get clarity from a fertility expert in a low-pressure setting.

Bring a friend, partner, or support person if you’d like—no one should have to figure this out alone.
