Maybe I Want Kids, Maybe I Don’t: The Truth About Egg Freezing and IVF

Maybe you want kids. Maybe you don’t. Maybe it changes every time you see a cute toddler in the elevator. So how much time do you actually have to figure it out? In this episode, Mehak sits down with Dr. Lucky Sekhon, an OBGYN, infertility specialist, and author of the bestselling fertility guide The Lucky Egg, to separate fact from fear around fertility, egg freezing, and the biological clock. Dr. Lucky opens up about the years she couldn’t picture herself as a mom, and how working in fertility changed her own timeline to have kids. Together, they break down the biggest fertility myths: what actually happens to your eggs after 35, why fertility isn’t just a “women’s problem,” and why IVF shouldn’t be treated as a guarantee. This one isn’t about telling you what to do with your body. It’s about making sure that whatever you decide, you never have to look back and say, “If only I’d known.” Follow Dr. Lucky Sekhon @lucky.sekhon on Instagram and @drluckyegg on TikTok.
