Far from being about ambition or career planning, Dr. Inhorn reveals the deeper truth: millions of educated, empowered women are freezing their eggs not because they don’t want love but because they can’t find it.

From the mating gap to hypergamy, feminist technology, and the raw realities of navigating motherhood alone, this is a vital conversation for anyone rethinking what it means to "have it all."
