Medical Disclaimer

The information on The Frozen Egg is provided for general educational and informational purposes only. It is not medical advice, and it is not a substitute for professional medical care, diagnosis, or treatment.

The Frozen Egg is not a clinic and does not provide fertility treatment, medical care, or diagnosis. Nothing on this site creates a doctor-patient or practitioner-client relationship.

IVF and fertility treatment are medical processes. Results, risks, costs, and the right approach vary from person to person based on age, health history, diagnosis, and many other factors. General information here may not apply to your specific situation.

Always seek the advice of a qualified, licensed professional, such as a board-certified reproductive endocrinologist, OB-GYN, or other fertility specialist, with any questions about fertility treatment or any medical condition. Never disregard professional medical advice, or delay seeking it, because of something you read here. This is especially important for anyone with an underlying health condition, anyone who is pregnant or may become pregnant, and anyone taking medication.

We also write about the emotional side of fertility. That content is for general support and information only and is not a substitute for care from a qualified mental health professional. If you are struggling, please reach out to a licensed professional. If you think you may have a medical or mental health emergency, contact a licensed professional or your local emergency services immediately.

By using this site, you acknowledge that you do so at your own discretion and risk, and that Johnny Ex, Inc. is not liable for decisions you make based on the information here.

Advertising Disclosure

The Frozen Egg is a free resource supported through advertising. This explains how.

Display advertising. We display ads through Google AdSense and may work with other ad networks. The advertising relationship is held by Johnny Ex, Inc. (contact: hello@thefrozenegg.com).

We use illustrations to explain concepts clearly while respecting the privacy of real individuals.
