I was contemplating this decision for quite sometime because of whatever was happening in my life. I realised that things are not going to happen so soon for me and I did not want to be dependent on anyone. I don’t want to be alone in life. At least I’ll have a child for myself who will be my future. I did not want to end that option for me. Jitna late hote Jao your AMH keeps dropping. Baad mein ye option bhi nahi bachega mere paas.

I have been thinking over it for the last 4 years and I feel had I done it 4 years ago, the quality of egg would have been much better. I feel I delayed it unnecessarily. But I’m glad I made this decision and it’s happening. I’m very happy this is my first step towards motherhood. Even if I’ll be a single mother, I’ll be more than happy that I’d have the option of freezing my eggs. (Photo: Instagram)

Yes, I discussed this with my mother. She was aware that I was thinking about it. She knew after my last relationship when it got over. Main jabse uss relationship se bahar aayi thi mere mind mein ye Kahin Na Kahin tha that I want to secure myself and mu future. I’ve to plan things for myself and don’t want to depend on anyone. My mother has been very supportive and she said are born in this era and you have an option, just go for it. (Photo: Instagram)

It takes time and you have to be in the city as it is a two-three weeks procedure. I have to go to the hospital almost every day as there are scans, and sonography that are being done. The doctors monitor and see how effective the injections are. It is not at all an easy process. Your body goes for a toss. But it is worth it. The way my life is going I felt I need to plan it to secure my future for myself. (Photo: Instagram)

This procedure is also very expensive and not everyone can afford it. I feel blessed. My case was a little complicated. I had a few complications and I was on extra injections and my body was going through a lot of things. When I went on my last event, a lot of people told me I was looking heavier on my chest and I couldn’t even share that I was on hormonal injections. In the beginning, I did not share it with anyone, but now people would know why I was looking bloated. I don’t have a problem with it, if I look more bloated also I don’t mind as it’s worth it.

I am into fitness so I am not worried I know I’ll get fit again. I am looking a little heavier because that’s what the hormonal injections do to your body. Also, since I had a few complications in my body, I was given heavier doses, this might not be the case with everyone. I had to stop workout and all and I was on complete bed rest. This journey has been very difficult and I’ve still not achieved it and I’ll have to go through two-three more cycles. (Photo: Instagram)

I’m getting messages from so many random girls and women who are praising me and saying even they were thinking and because of me they have got a push to do it. There were so many people who were planning but had doubts but now they have a clarity. I'm glad Mere paas toh koi nahi tha to guide but I can guide a few people. (Photo: Instagram)

Lot of women felt that it just takes a day, but I told them aisa bhi nahi hai. You have to be present in the same city and visit the hospital for sessions. So choose a clinic which is closest to your house. I had to also plan this because for the last six months I was shooting outdoors. I’d taken my appointment 8 months ago, but as I was shooting outdoors and my doctor told me they need me in the same city, I had to do it now. (Photo: Instagram)

Mujhe itna samajh mein aagaya tha I’m not dating anyone, I’m single, and I don’t know tomorrow I'll be with who and when will it happen, whether I’ll meet someone also or not? And even if I get into a relationship I won’t plan a child on the second day itself so I don’t want that it to get so late that I don’t have an option of conceiving. (Photo: Instagram)
