"I'm not sure if I want children but I guess it gives me a bit of a security blanket for potentially having a child if I want to later in life," Eliza said in a video.

"I am single, so you have to think about these things a little bit."

You can hear everything Eliza said about her egg-freezing journey in the video above.

Similar to IVF, egg freezing involves a woman injecting herself with hormones to stimulate the ovaries to grow more eggs. They are then harvested and the viable ones are frozen and stored until they are ready to be used.

The process can cost anywhere between $7000 and $10,000 per cycle and then there are ongoing storage fees until a woman is ready to use her eggs. Some patients are eligible for a Medicare rebate, but not everyone qualifies.

Eliza was very honest about the fact that her winnings from The Block put her in the financial position to be able to freeze her eggs again.

"I wouldn't be able to do it without those winnings because as a lot of you know it is an investment," she said.

Eliza later replied to those asking why she was going through the process for a second time.

"The number of eggs I got first go equates to a 25 percent chance of a baby," Eliza penned.

"I was advised to go again, but it wasn't a financially viable option for me at the time."

Eliza is only at the start of her journey, telling followers that she is starting her hormone treatment in the coming days and would continue to document and share the process.

Along with her sister Liberty, 35, Eliza competed in The Block: Charming Street in 2023.
