Episode five: Is egg freezing an insurance policy?

View descriptionShare

In this week's episode of The Dilemma we are talking about fertility with two special guests. Sheree generously shares her personal story and Dr Tash tells us about the advice she gives patients. We talk about whether people are being pushed into egg freezing, what to do about time-wasting partners and what comes after the grief of infertility.

Host: Gina Rushton 

Executive producer: Kara Jensen-Mackinnon

Guests: Sheree Joseph, Dr Natasha Andreadis

Extra reading: Sheree wrote about her experiences here and Dr Tash has her own podcast called The Fanny Mechanic. One of Gina's favourite books on all of this is The Seed: Infertility is a Feminist Issue by Alexandra Kimball and here's a piece Gina wrote about living with endometriosis.


This episode of The Dilemma was made possible with the support of The Victorian Women’s Trust. They’ve created another podcast, The Trap, a series about love, abuse and power. Hosted by award-winning journalist Jess Hill, this podcast looks deeply at abuse that happens in private, and in public, searching the world for answers to the questions that continue to confound us.
