NHS funding for egg freezing, for those suffering from endometriosis.
I want the Government to fund or subsidise egg freezing for people with endometriosis, ensure early fertility discussions at diagnosis, and create clear NHS pathways so patients can preserve their fertility before the condition causes lasting damage.

Background
Endometriosis can harm fertility long before someone is ready to have children, yet egg freezing is often unaffordable and not supported by the NHS. We urge the UK Government and NHS leaders to recognise egg freezing as essential care for endometriosis patients. Making it accessible and affordable would protect future family choices and support the wellbeing of those living with this painful and often misunderstood condition.
