Lto singer Kesha36, earlier this year made the choice to stretch her fertility: her name is egg freezing and it’s the process by which eggs are extracted from the ovaries and frozen. A preventive and forward-looking procedure for those who, unsure about the future, want to preserve the possibility of a pregnancy. The experience, however, for the singer, was not easy at all, as she said in an interview with self.
Kesha and egg freezing: “I almost died”
The story begins when the singer decides to freeze your eggs in order to postpone a possible pregnancy. After doing so, however, she became very ill and was even too weak to walk. Doctors would discover that she had arisen a rare but sadly serious complication following the procedure.
Basically, in Kesha’s case, the immune system has weakened enough to get to suffer from icommon variable immunodeficiency. Kesha was in the hospital for nine days, but her treatment path was long and she confessed that she finally felt better only now: “It took months – she told her Self – It was horrible”.

Egg freezing, not just Kesha
Kesha is not the only celebrity to have decided to freeze her eggs, with her there are several others including also the supermodel Bianca Balti and Emily Rataykowski. and it can be said that, like any other medical procedure, it clearly has its possible complications, many of which, however, as is known, occur very rarely.
What is common variable immunodeficiency
L’common variable immunodeficiency (CVD), also known as common variable immunodeficiency, is an immune system disorder characterized by reduced antibody production. It is one of the most common primary immunodeficiencies and usually occurs in adulthood, although it can be diagnosed in childhood.
In CVD, the immune system is unable to produce enough antibodies, proteins that are essential for fighting infection. This makes individuals with ICV more susceptible to recurring bacterial infectionsespecially the respiratory and gastrointestinal tracts. Viral, fungal, and parasitic infections can also occur.
No definitive cure
The causes of CVD are not yet fully understood, but it is believed that it may be associated with a genetically based disorder. The diagnosis of CVD is confirmed through specific tests, such as the dosage of antibodies in the blood and evaluations of the immune response to vaccines. There is currently no definitive curebut treatments aim to manage symptoms and prevent infections through the use of artificial immunoglobulins (antibodies), prophylactic antibiotics, and specific therapies for autoimmune complications.
