Susie Evans Details ‘Emotional’ Egg Retrieval Experience and Shares How Recovery Has Been
Getting vulnerable.
Bachelor Nation fans got to know and love Susie Evans on Season 26 of "The Bachelor" and again on Season 10 of "Bachelor in Paradise."
Since her time on the shows, Susie has been living in L.A. and keeping fans updated on her life online.
Earlier this month, she took to Instagram to share a deeply personal journey with her hundreds of thousands of followers: her decision to freeze her eggs.
She shared, “While I’m still figuring out the marriage and kids chapter, I look at the life I’ve built and the blessing of having the option to freeze my eggs, and I feel incredibly grateful.”
Over the past few weeks, Susie has been documenting her hormone injection process on social media as she prepared her body for the egg retrieval.
Now, she’s taken to Instagram to share that she had her egg retrieval procedure earlier this week.
Alongside a video of herself crying in the recovery room, the Bachelor Nation star wrote, “It went well! I’ve been recovering yesterday and today. I’ve been documenting so much, but I’ve been waiting to share everything. I always get so emotional after anesthesia and just wanted to hug everyone.”
In a Q&A on her Instagram Stories, Susie also shared more about the process leading up to the retrieval.
One fan asked whether she drank alcohol or stayed sober ahead of the procedure while doing the injections.
Susie responded, “Didn’t drink at all during the injection time frame. I drank a little in the month before starting injections, but honestly limited that a lot too to try to be as healthy as possible heading into the process!”
We love how open Susie has been about her egg-freezing journey. We know sharing her experience will help others going through a similar process.
