Nigerian Afrobeats icon Tiwa Savage has opened up about her choice to freeze her eggs as a way to protect her future fertility.
The mother of one shared that she took this step to keep the option open for having more children down the line.
In a heartfelt interview with Zeze Mills, the 42-year-old singer expressed some regret about not doing it earlier but encouraged women in their 30s to consider egg freezing as a way to take charge of their reproductive health.

“Having my first child in my 30s was beautiful because I was more financially and emotionally stable. One advice I will give to women in their 30s is – whether you wanna have children or not, egg freeze,” Tiwa said.
She added, “I wish I did it earlier. But I’ve done it now. I don’t know if I want more kids but in case I do, I’ve done that [frozen my eggs] just that have that insurance. Because I don’t know if we are born with a certain amount of egg reserves, you could wake up at 36 and your egg reserve is done. And then that’s when you now decide that you want to have kids. So, I’m really a big advocate for egg freezing now.”
