Egg freezing typically costs between $10,000 and $20,000. Storing your eggs can cost up to $1,000 per year.

Some experts say the expensive procedure is not one that needs to done by all young women.

“Egg freezing works but it's not something that needs to be done by every single woman, especially in her early 20s,” said Dr. Kristin Bendikson, a Los Angeles-based fertility expert. “There's a fine line between educating women about their reproductive life span and exploiting their fears about becoming a mother.”

Dr. Aimee Eyvazzadeh, a San Francisco-based fertility expert who has hosted \"egg freezing\" parties for women since 2014, said she believes women can successfully freeze their eggs into their 30s and even 40s.

Eyvazzadeh, known as \"the egg whisperer,\" is focused on spreading the message that women should know their fertility level by the time they're 25. From there, women should get their fertility level checked each year, just as often as a pap smear.

\"My goal and mission is to educate, not to scare or pressure women,\" she said. \"I want people to know that fertility screening is easy and I want to teach them the simple steps.\"

Courtney Cohen, 28, an attendee at a Southern California Reproductive Center event, said, for her, considering freezing her eggs at a young age comes down to the potential peace of mind.

\"It's kind of like an insurance plan,\" she said. \"It's just planning for the future, just like you would for anything else.\"
