Spring Fertility To Give Away Free Egg Freezing Via Virtual Easter Egg Hunt On Gaming App
SAN FRANCISCO, March 22, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Spring Fertility just made Easter very interesting. On Saturday, March 24(th), Spring is inviting all Bay Area women interested in freezing their eggs to participate in an Easter egg hunt. One lucky winner will have the opportunity to save her eggs this year for a future family. The Golden Egg can be won through a series of challenges using the gaming app "Scavify," and is good for one egg freezing cycle with medications at Spring Fertility, a value of approximately $13,000.
Egg freezing is growing in popularity, as women increasingly delay childbearing, to pursue advanced degrees, achieve professional milestones, or meet the right partner. Egg freezing allows modern women to proactively plan and protect their future fertility. "Younger women are more likely to benefit from egg freezing because they are able to freeze more eggs, and younger eggs are more likely to be viable," explains Dr. Peter Klatsky, Co-founder and Director of Egg freezing at Spring Fertility. "Women oftentimes don't realize that the age of a woman's uterus does not have a strong effect on fertility."
"We want women to be able to access this technology and feel positive about it. This is an amazing opportunity that our patients didn't have 10 years ago," explains Dr. Debra Minjarez, of Spring Fertility. "Women are planning for their future and creating opportunities. It should feel optimistic and empowering. That's why we decided to use a gaming app and an Easter egg hunt to raise awareness, have fun and allow someone to access the technology who might not have been able to prior."
Dr. Klatsky explained, "Our mission at Spring is to help women achieve their goals, today or tomorrow. For some women, that is getting pregnant next month, for others, it is creating the peace of mind and option for future pregnancies so that they can go after their personal or professional goals today."
The high cost of the procedure prevents many women from taking advantage of this new technology, but Spring Fertility is creating ways to help more women afford the procedure when they are younger and may not have as much savings. In addition to giving away a free egg freezing cycle, they also offer payment plans. "Women at Spring Fertility can freeze their eggs for $295 a month over 36 months, no high annual interest charges or down payments" according to Finance Manager Khaled Farahat.
Spring Fertility is welcoming anyone in the Bay Area interested in egg freezing to join this virtual Easter egg hunt, through gaming app, Scavify. Players can participate in the egg hunt by searching "SF Golden Egg" in Scavify, then complete special tasks and trivia to earn points. Grand prize winner receives a free egg freezing cycle (including meds), to be announced on Easter Sunday (April 1).
Details on the virtual SF Golden Egg Hunt game, plus a special event held in San Francisco on Saturday, March 24th can be found at gold.springfertility.com.
