Social egg freezing - also known as self-oocyte freezing - allows women who want a child, but don't want it right away, to postpone motherhood through oocyte cryopreservation. This technology promises to free women from the pressure of the biological clock. But it also raises questions about medical risks, the welfare of the child and the reconciliation of family and professional life.
