Scheana Marie has been sort of a story of her own on Vanderpump Rules so far. After brutally rejecting her only ally, James in an effort to be admitted into the Witches of Weho clique, she found herself frozen out and set adrift in the article ocean like an elderly Eskimo. What’s a girl to do? Well, call it cryotherapy and swim back to shore and start your own Bachelorette storyline replete with rejected guys from the actual show of course.
On Saturday, Scheana posted this photo with the following caption…
We retrieved 12 eggs and only got 9 mature of those, so I am already planning a second round this summer bc the more the merrier and better chance of being viable once fertilized down the road! In no way am I trying to minimize those struggling with infertility by saying this is “easy”. I’m not trying to have a baby right now, so this was an easy decision for me to make and thankfully I’m fortunate enough to be able to afford it. 
Despite the constant bragging about being able to afford the procedure, the shout outs to her doctors combined with having them on her podcast to do a full show advertisement says to me she got the procedure with the doctor’s portion of the procedure waived.
How long until Scheana claims responsibility for having that egg Instagram with the most likes in Instagram history? Or perhaps it was inspiration for her to have this procedure. I can see her pea brain working now, “A Egg is the most liked Instagram? Oh, I have eggs! I have another one of my brilliant ideas…”
I am by no means a Scheana fan and I wish I would get a discount from fertility doctors like she is right now but I am glad she is posting about this. I think bringing this subject up needs to be done more. I am 31, one miscarriage and in fertility treatment with eggs of a 40 year old. I wish I had this information when I was in my twenties. No one really talks about getting your AMH done. I hope she uses this platform for the right reasons and not for a storyline because that would really piss me off!
Thanks for sharing your experience Lolo. I’m so sorry for your loss and wish the best of luck with your fertility treatments.
It sounds like Scheana is a character in search of a storyline so it would Really suck if she used something this serious to garner sympathy and/or to get airtime.
Good luck to you on your journey but I doubt she’s still in her 20’s and its 200% storyline.
She’s 33 and that’s about the right time to do it.
Why are all the snarky comments about this on Twitter and not here? SHARE WITH THE CLASS, Y”ALL!
Lola, I know that you’re traveling down a really hard road. Be sure to take care of you. When you can find something that makes you laugh out loud. And everyday do something nice for yourself. Even if it’s just a hot bath (with bubbles). Good luck on your journey.
I think this is a good move. Now maybe she won’t be so desperate for a relationship. One can only hope. It is painful watching her, hits a little to close to home.
Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz … Scheana trying to pretend this is a PSA. Zzzzzzzzzzzzz…
This poor child will do anything to stay rerelevant. She is so thirsty for a storyline. I still give zero fucks about her.
She will never be accepted by the Weho clique. They wrote her off when she wore that two-piece wedding dress. ????
Because she is an insufferable asshole. I had my 1st kid at 36 and second at 38 because it took me that long to find someone who could stand me. She’s smart to freeze hers because it will take her a lot longer.
I never found anyone who could stand me. LOL. So of us realize eventually that we are not made to be around another human 24/7. One in the next town over you see twice a month or so is plenty.
I laughed out loud to myself which I never do: “set adrift….like an elderly Eskimo”. Hilarious.
I am glad Scheana is doing this and think it’s even greater that she is sharing her experience with others. For myself, I did actually look into freezing my eggs when I was 30-31 (around a decade ago) because I had just gotten out of a very long relationship and was in grad school and not interested in dating at all.
But I didn’t go through with it because there are many risks with freezing eggs; it’s not a failsafe plan. Perhaps the process has gotten more sophisticated since I looked into it for myself, but I do know (from relatives/friends who have had to freeze eggs/embryos), that freezing eggs is NOT a guarantee of pregnancy or a baby. The eggs might not survive the thawing process or remain viable over time. In addition, for many reasons, including age, the embryo may fail to implant. And a pregnant 40 year old women is having a high risk pregnancy, regardless of the age of her eggs, because her uterus is still 40 years old. So, I think it’s also important for women to be aware of this perspective when opting to delay pregnancy for any reason, especially if due to the fact that they have frozen eggs. It is certainly a blessing and miracle of modern medicine, but not necessarily for everyone.
P.S. I got married 2 years later and now have 3 kids! Ouch. lol
She’s the last person that should procreate. Another narcissist raising a baby is not what the world needs and what’s with all the freezing of eggs? Are our bodies so f’d up that it doesn’t happen naturally anymore or are doctors scaring young women to do this because it’s big business? Had one at 29 and the other at 37. No issues.
If you have a healthy AMH you can have easy healthy pregnancies into your early 40s. You’re a lucky one.
I’d say good for her for sharing and opening up on the topic of fertility, but she’s NOT.
I’ve known a couple of women that have done this too (harvesting of eggs), and it isn’t fucking EASY. I’m not talking about the shots either… it is the hormones that it takes to force your body to prepare so many eggs at once. One of the women admitted normally her “cycle symptoms” (PMS, etc) weren’t bad, that she was pretty even keeled but on the hormone shots she could feel her emotions amplified by 10,000… She said her guilt over being mean at times to her husband was even amplified and she ended up sobbing on him for an hour. (She later made his buddies take him out for a guy’s weekend or something like that.). The other woman just said she felt “off” the entire time, and got fuzzy. Of course, that could have been the stress of worrying about if she’d get any eggs and the cost, etc.
But then…. Sheana is already nuts so she probably didn’t feel a thing.
Well she’s already frozen her face so she might as well start freezing other things too.
Distasteful jokes aside, she’s like what 35-36 (?) now and is no closer to the married bliss she craves so I get the freezing of the eggs for future use. I’m pleasantly surprised she’s the maternal kind, she never struck me as such.
Maternal? She’d use a kid as an accessory
You mean they aren’t for Instagram pictures with #blessed? Mind blown.
An AMH of .28 is extremely low. Even if she were trying to conceive now she’d likely need IVF anyway. I’m always shocked to hear an otherwise healthy person has an AMH that low. I’m 32 and was going to freeze my eggs but my AMH came back at 4.2 which is good for a 20 year old and they said I could wait another 5 years to have it rechecked. Biology knows no bounds. Lord knows.
