Heather Rae Young Shares Fertility Journey With Fans

Heather Rae Young—who is now using her husband Tarek El Moussa's surname—took fans on her journey into the world of conception.

The Playboy Playmate of the Month winner is looking to have a baby with her loving husband, who she married earlier this year.

Fertility is a rollercoaster affair, and the actress lets the public know the challenges that stand in her way and her plans to maneuver them.

On Tuesday, December 28, Young took to TikTok to dive into her fertility journey, which begins with freezing her eggs.

The "Malibu Horror Story" actress detailed her efforts in a video from a fertility clinic where she just wrapped up an ultrasound.

Before recording her candid testimonial, Young underwent a check-up from medical personnel who inspected her follicles.

The 34-year-old explained that she has six follicles on one side and a cyst on the other. The cyst needed to be monitored but was not a cause for alarm.

Young noted that no follicles were present on the side that had the cyst and, if she and Moussa decide to go ahead, her egg freezing process will begin in January.

The Californian beauty currently has six eggs "on ice" but needs to test her blood. The results will show her egg count and progesterone levels.

Young may be worried about her impending blood test as she admitted to having low fertility and a low egg count in the past.

In her captions, the "Mafia" explained that she was sharing her fertility process in hopes that it "can help some of you ladies."

The Blast revealed that the couple was first introduced when the real estate investor spotted his future wife on a yacht near his on July 4.

Fireworks were not the only sparks that flew during the celebrations. The strangers turned acquaintances were later spotted in Redondo Beach, California, looking intimate on a separate boat ride, July 28.

El Moussa confirmed their relationship in an anniversary post. He and young later detailed their love in an interview back in August.

Young gushed to Women's Health about how The "Flip or Flop" star's kids welcomed her into their lives from day one.

Moussa has two children, 10-year-old Taylor and 5-year-old Brayden, from his marriage to Christina Haack.

On April 6, 2020, the lovebirds moved into a new home. In July 2020, Moussa romantically proposed to Young at a getaway celebration.

On October 23, Mousa and Young began happily ever after as a married couple after tying the knot at a fairytale old-Hollywood-themed wedding.

The Blast shared the wedding details as told by the couple to PEOPLE. The event was preceded by a bachelor/bachelorette party in Palm springs. 

Young sported a custom-made Galia Lahav long-sleeved corset wedding dress adorned with French lace and a cute keyhole back.

The groom opted black velvet tux lined with skull-and-crossbones-print for the ceremony held at a high-end Santa Barbara hotel.

More details of the celebration of love are on their one-hour special airing on Discovery+ titled "Tarek and Heather: The Big I Do."
