Fertility rates for women over 40 have nearly doubled in the last 30 years, but age is still the biggest factor when it comes to conception. In this episode, Dr Joseph Sgroi unpacks how fertility really changes over time, the role of lifestyle, and what women should know if they’re planning children later in life. We also dive into egg freezing, Australia’s new egg freezing calculator, the truth behind celebrity pregnancies, and why IVF age limits exist. It’s a practical, honest conversation about fertility, choice, and the future of parenthood.
