> How are you thinking about the increased growth of egg freezing

The actual number of babies that have been born worldwide from frozen eggs is only around 2,000, and most of those were done either to prove out the concept or else due to some specific medical condition (e.g. about to get chemo). Despite the fact that you read about it in the news all the time and it feels like everyone is doing it, the number of babies born to women who decided to just pre-emptively freeze their eggs is probably only a couple hundred, accounting for literally 0.00% of babies born each year.
