For most people, January is about resolutions. For Karishma Mehta, it was about reclaiming control—over her life, her career, and her fertility. The 32-year-old founder of Humans of Bombay took to Instagram to share that she had frozen her eggs.

“Been meaning to do this for a while and finally got around to it. I froze my eggs at the beginning of the month,” Mehta wrote, casually yet powerfully addressing a topic often shrouded in silence.

Egg freezing, or oocyte cryopreservation, involves extracting a woman’s eggs, freezing them at temperatures as low as -196°C, and storing them for future use. While many women opt for this procedure to preserve fertility due to medical reasons, it’s increasingly becoming a choice for those prioritizing careers, personal growth, or simply not feeling ready to start a family.

Mehta’s decision came alongside a series of other milestones—attending a Coldplay concert in Mumbai, celebrating 11 years of Humans of Bombay, completing a LinkedIn masterclass, and raising ₹20 lakh for a rape victim. But it was her candid acknowledgement of her egg-freezing journey that resonated most.

“January, you’ve been special. And I hope it has been for you too. Tell me, what’s something special that’s happened to you this month?” she wrote, inviting her followers into a dialogue that quickly filled with support.

“Woowowow now that’s what is called a kick a** start to the year,” one user commented. Another added, “You are such an awesome inspiration!” and a third chimed in, “Phenomenal! It’s so inspiring as well as commendable, all the hard work you put in and it shows.”

Another user praised her and said, “More strength to u @karimehta05 keep going, keep shining & keep inspiring forever Regards, Prayers, Best wishes & Lots of good energy for u”.
