I don't think your odds of getting together with an uberman is getting that better if you're in the age where you have to consider freezing your eggs.
How many cats do you currently own?

Thought some people would find this academic paper on egg freezing outcomes interesting, since it adds something substantial to the discussion instead of just internet opinions. It is an open paper; anyone may read it without an academic journal subscription, and if you are interested, I would encourage you to read it directly ("Use the source, Luke").
TL;DR: The success rate of live birth per egg (oocyte) frozen depends on the woman's age at the time of freezing and the number of eggs frozen. There are more factors to consider (which the paper mentions) and they break down success probabilities for each step of the process (eg. Success rate of oocyte thaw, success rate of thawed oocyte fertilization, etc)
Things that increase odds of live birth rate success:
1. Actually returning to use your frozen eggs (this is not a joke; usage rate is around 16%).
2. Freezing 15 or more eggs. This is irrespective of the woman's age at the time of freezing; the odds of live birth increase at 15 or more.
This paper only directly analyzed 167 women who froze their eggs at the same facility (small sample bias), but the authors compare their numbers against global averages.
Other things women should consider is getting a consultation from a doctor and finding out if you even can freeze your eggs, and then calculating the procedure + storage fee costs and figuring out if you can afford it long term.

There's no point in freezing eggs as womb & body still ages the same way and the success of thawing and fertilization and implantation to birth is low, somewhere in order of 20%.
It's always cheaper to do natural birth/impregnation than to deal with doctors.
Not to include the damage to hormonal&immune system when eggs are induced for collection and multiple are released at the same time. It's a stupid game for gullible people.
