FAQ

What is egg donation and how can it benefit me or my family?

Egg donation is a fertility process where eggs are donated by a generous individual and then used in treatments like In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) to help another person or couple achieve pregnancy. This is an invaluable option for individuals or couples who may have challenges with egg quality or quantity, for same-sex couples, and for those looking to build families with diverse genetic backgrounds. Egg donation can open doors to parenthood where other options might not be viable.

Is egg donation an option for LGBTQIA+ individuals and couples?

Absolutely! Egg donation is a cherished pathway for members of the LGBTQIA+ community. For example, same-sex female couples may use donated eggs in combination with partner IVF, where one partner provides the eggs and the other carries the pregnancy. Male couples and individuals can also benefit from egg donation by using the donated eggs alongside sperm from one or both partners, with the embryo transferred to a gestational carrier.

How are egg donors screened?

Egg donors undergo a comprehensive screening process to ensure they meet high standards of physical, genetic, and emotional health. The screening typically includes medical history, physical examinations, genetic testing, psychological evaluations, and infectious disease screening. This meticulous process is in place to maximize the chances of a healthy pregnancy and to provide peace of mind for the recipients.

Can I choose specific traits in an egg donor?

Yes, many egg donation programs allow you to review non-identifying information about donors, such as physical characteristics, educational background, and hobbies. This information can help you select a donor whose attributes resonate with your family values and preferences. Our program is committed to diversity and inclusivity and offers a wide range of donors to reflect the rich tapestry of family building.
