Summary

On this week's episode of Beauty Bytes we are talking all about egg harvesting with Dr. Sasha Hakman. Dr. Hakman is a board-certified OBGYN and reproductive endocrinology and infertility specialist at Vios Fertility in Detroit MI. She completed her residency training at Michigan State University and fellowship at the medical college of Georgia. She has a research background in genetics in women’s health disorders and is a strong advocate for lifestyle changes to promote reproductive health. This isn't a topic that I discuss much on my platform but as the aesthetic industry is 90% women, the debate on egg harvesting is a topic I get asked a lot about! Egg freezing might be an option if you're not ready to become pregnant now but want to try to make sure you can get pregnant later. It is recommended to freeze your eggs in your late 20s or early 30s. The younger you are, the better! We talked about female fertility, egg harvesting, and women’s health. If you’re thinking about harvesting your eggs, tune in to hear our thoughts!!

1:04.5	and when did you get into fertility and egg harvesting
1:07.4	and teaching women about their options?
1:14.6	Honestly, it was kind of almost coincidental in a way like when i was an obfgy and resident a lot of people said that i really had
1:20.4	the personality in the knack for reproductive endocrinology and so it wasn't really on my radar

1:39.0	But then I was also a single female in my early 30s and was always super nervous about my reproductive
1:49.1	future as well.
