The action star stated on the podcast &#8220;I&#8217;ve Never Said This Before with Tommy DiDario&#8221; that she is speaking out to help women &#8220;understand what their choices are.&#8221;
&#8220;I think it&#8217;s really important for women to have enough resources and information on the subject,&#8221; said Karen Fukuhara, star of The Boys, who revealed that she had her eggs frozen after a breakup and is now speaking out.

“The Boys” Star Karen Fukuhara Said She Had Her Eggs Frozen as ‘Insurance’ for the Future.
&#8220;I debated whether or not I wanted to talk about this, but I think it is really important for people to know about: I just went through an egg-freezing process,&#8221; Fukuhara, 32, stated in an exclusive clip from the July 30 episode of Tommy DiDario&#8217;s podcast, I&#8217;ve Never Said This Before with Tommy DiDario.
&#8220;I personally did not realize how it can be an easy process — but it can also be like a longer process for some, and for me, it was longer,&#8221; Fukuhara added, referring to it as a means to &#8220;ensure life later.&#8221; It&#8217;s crucial, in my opinion, that women everywhere are aware of their options.
“It is time-sensitive,” she said, adding, “If I had known all the things I know now, I think I would have done it a couple years before, so yeah. Freeze your eggs if you can.”

As the Cleveland Clinic explains, freezing your eggs involves “treatment with hormones to stimulate egg production in your ovaries. Your provider removes the eggs and freezes and stores them.”
“When you’re ready to pursue pregnancy, your fertility team thaws the frozen specimen,” which is then used to “create embryos” that are then implanted “into your uterus or someone else’s who will carry your 𝚋𝚊𝚋𝚢 for you.”
According to the Cleveland Clinic, it&#8217;s recommended that egg preservation occur “by age 35 for women who have no immediate plans of having children.”
And as Fukuhara explained, “It’s good to think about those things because options are available more when you&#8217;re younger.”
“I didn&#8217;t really think about it until a few years back and it was like a big thought — I never dated to marry, to be honest. I just feel like when you&#8217;re in your early twenties, you don&#8217;t really think about like, ‘Oh, is he marriage material? Is he father material?&#8217; I just never thought about it.”
“I was like, ‘Oh, this is fun. I’m dating someone that I like.’ “
But as she shared, “Recently I went through a breakup, and now I don’t have a partner. So, I was like, ‘Okay, maybe I should freeze my eggs.’ “
“But long story short, without getting too far deep into it &#8230; Look into that if you are a woman.”
&nbsp;
DiDario said that was “really cool&#8221; for Fukuhara to share her experience of freezing her eggs, because “there are a lot of women I know as well who debate it… I&#8217;ve had a few people in my life regret that [they didn’t], so I think it&#8217;s an important message to put out.”
“It just gives you the option, right?” he clarified. “You don&#8217;t have to decide anything?”
“Yeah, no, and I think that I’m going to have a natural birth,” she confirmed — then added with a laugh, “It’s always good to have insurance as well, just in case there’s no one that pops up that I can have a 𝚋𝚊𝚋𝚢 with.”
