Ex-Miss World gives birth from egg frozen for 8 yrs

By Malathy Iyer Mumbai:


When former Miss World Diana Hayden delivered a baby in a city hospital on Saturday , a bit of medical marvel was at work. The girl was born out of an egg the 42year-old Hayden had frozen eight years ago.

Arya Hayden's birth proves that egg freezing, deemed technically difficult until a decade ago, works and could liberate Indian women from their great worry: the ticking biological clock. “A career woman need not think about her biological clock and get pressurised into getting married earlier than she wants to or have a baby when she isn't ready ,“ said Hayden from her hospital suite in Surya Mother and Child Hospital in Santa Cruz.

Hayden was 32 when she read about egg freezing for the first time in 2005. Between October 2007 and March 2008, she froze 16 eggs with infertility specialist Dr Nandita Palshetkar. “I froze my eggs for two reasons: I was busy with my career at that time and, more important, I was very clear I was going to wait to fall in love and marry before having a baby .“

Freezing her eggs proved to be a godsent for Hayden for another reason. Hayden, who was 40 when she fell in love and married American Collin Dick two years ago, found she had endometriosis. “Endometriosis is a painful condit ion in which the endometrium or the inner lining of the uterus starts growing outside as well. Women with endometriosis may not always produce good quality eggs,“ said Palshetkar.

That is when the couple decided to thaw Diana's frozen eggs and attempt a test-tube baby . “Hayden's daughter weighed 3.7kg and was 55cm long. The average weight and length in India are 2.6kg and 48cm,“ said pediatrician Dr Bhupendra Avasthi of Surya Hospital.
