I froze my eggs at the age of 39, it’s ok for women to not have children: Tanishaa Mukerji

After establishing a career in Bollywood, Tanishaa Mukerji impressed all with her journey in Bigg Boss 7. She went on to participate in reality shows and now, Tanishaa is all set to present her short film titled Life is short. In an interview with a leading daily, the actress spoke about the project. She further talked about her physical transformation and revealed that she froze her eggs at the age of 39. Tanishaa said that she is happy with the decision. 

"At one point I was very conflicted because I was turning 39 and I wanted to freeze my eggs. I didn’t have a baby and all these things were going on in my mind. I finally got some guidance and froze my eggs at the age of 39. But I also put on a lot of weight due to the procedure. They pump you with a lot of Progesterone and it bloats you a lot. Not putting on weight, you become round and glowing and become very beautiful. I love pregnant women, they are in their most beautiful phase with that baby glow. I was very happy about freezing my eggs," Tanishaa told.

She further added, "I wanted to freeze my eggs at the age of 33! At that time, when I went to my doctor (who finally froze my eggs now)… it is funny but she stopped me from doing so at that time. While she told me it takes a toll on your body, she advised I should do it when I have no hope of conceiving a baby. It’s a personal choice. And today, it is perfectly ok to not have children. Adopt, there’s enough in this world. More people need to go out and talk about this. It’s ok for women to not have children. That’s not the only calling in your life. It’s ok to not get married, not be in a relationship and not define yourself with a man beside you. Back in the days, my grandmother and women those days didn’t define themselves with the man. We have gone wrong somewhere in the middle. My grandmother was a strong, amazing personality, who never defined herself with a man."
