Brief Answer:
can be freezed

Detailed Answer:
Hello dear yes eggs can be freezed easily at higher infertility centers.
But best is to freeze embryos if possible.
The process is simple and is just by giving you ovulation induction drugs and harvesting the eggs when they achieve maturity and then transfer them later whenever you wish to get pregnant.
I hope that the above facts will be useful to you and in case you have any questions I will be happy to help.
