Akansha Ranjan Kapoor Shares Harrowing Experience of Egg Freezing Process Akansha Ranjan Kapoor, a 32-year-old actress known for her roles in web series like Guilty, Monica, O My Darling, and Ray, recently opened up about the physical and emotional challenges she faced during her egg freezing journey. In a candid conversation on Soha Ali Khan’s podcast All About Her, she detailed the reasons behind her decision, the intense physical discomfort, and her reflections on reproductive health. Kapoor explained that she chose to freeze her eggs due to concerns about her fertility, citing low Anti-Mullerian Hormone (AMH) levels as a key factor. The AMH test, which measures ovarian reserve and fertility potential in women, revealed that her levels were at the lower end of the spectrum for her age. She emphasized that her decision was driven by a combination of personal health concerns and the challenges faced by those around her, many of whom struggled with unexplained infertility. “It wasn’t a fear; it was an understanding that it is something I need to do for my future self,” she said. The process, however, was far from painless. Kapoor described the physical toll of egg freezing, including severe bloating, heaviness, and pain that left her unable to walk for 2-3 days. She recounted how the injections caused a sensation akin to “a big balloon inside me,” making it difficult to stand straight. Her doctor noted that her small stature might contribute to the discomfort, but the pain was undeniable. “After the first day, there’s no way I can even walk,” she said, adding that the experience was unlike a typical menstrual cramp. Instead, it felt like a “discomfort” that left her feeling as though her stomach might burst. Kapoor’s ordeal extended beyond the physical.#akansha_ranjan_kapoor #soha_ali_khan #guilty #monica_omy_darling #ray
