Who We Are

Ovasave is the first and most trusted platform in the Middle East for women to access products, digital solutions, and credible information surrounding fertility and hormone health.

Born in the UAE, we’re not only simplifying the egg preservation process, but also providing guidance, support, care and insights through all stages of the fertility journey, while championing a movement to break the silence around fertility one conversation at a time.

Our Mission

We created Ovasave to empower women to make proactive, well-informed choices about their reproductive health and take control of their fertility. We believe every woman can have it all and deserves to live life on her own terms, free from time constraints.

Our Message To Women

This brand emerged out of a need to free ourselves from the shackles of ticking biological clocks and embrace life on our own terms. We’re here to help you—and every member of our community— understand your body better and take back control of your fertility.

We set out to build an authentic support system for women who have been left in the dark, to round up an outspoken community to break the silence on reproductive health. We promise to arm you with knowledge and information that you should have gotten all along, that nobody should have been afraid to talk about in the first place—and we’ll do so with unconditional transparency. It’s both our purpose and our responsibility to empower you to make better, informed choices for both your current and your future self.

Through Ovasave, we’re helping to create a world where fertility testing is as common as breast checks, where you get to call the shots on your reproductive health. Because you’re a woman with dreams, aspirations, priorities, independence, a career, a story. Because you’re not just a baby-maker. Because you’ve got a life to live

It’s your right to own your timeline.

Our Story

Our story began with our founder, Torkia, who, while embarking on her own egg freezing journey, saw an opportunity to leverage technology to help women with fertility healthcare. After taking an AMH test to check her ovarian reserve just ahead of her 34th birthday, Torkia realized that if she eventually wanted children of her own, it was time to start freezing her eggs.

The process, she soon discovered, was shocking, confusing and overwhelming; there were so many barriers. She couldn’t find the support she needed, and while there were many fertility clinics, she didn’t know where to begin. She became acutely aware of how little education she had received about her own reproductive health.

She also realized she wasn’t alone in this. Many other women had similar struggles with the lack of information, the systemic challenges, and the social and cultural stigmas. Her conclusion? Egg freezing — and all things related to our hormonal health — should be easier, simpler, and more accessible to all women.

“Nothing in my education or personal life had ever prepared me for that reality. It was confusing and demoralizing while it should have been exciting and empowering. Ultimately, that experience led me to want to pave a better way for other women.“ - Torkia Mahloul -

Soon after that experience, Torkia met fertility expert Majd Abu Zant and discovered they shared the same vision: to empower women to understand and take charge of their fertility. In October 2022, with Majd as her business partner, Torkia launched Ovasave. The first platform of its kind in the region, the brand is now on its way to revolutionizing the fertility space in the Middle East and helping women reclaim control of their fertility and reproductive health.
