Egg Donor
This page is for someone being assessed to donate eggs. It is the donor's screening and egg-collection path. People hoping to conceive with donor eggs should read the egg donation page instead.
What does egg donation ask of a donor?
The candidate is screened for health, infection and genetic history. If accepted, the ovaries are stimulated and eggs are collected. Those eggs are fertilised with sperm for a recipient's treatment. The donor does not carry the pregnancy. The path is a short medical cycle, not a long course of treatment.
What is looked at in a candidate?
- An age range and an ovarian reserve that is sufficient to donate
- Infection tests, a blood count and a general health review
- Questions about serious genetic disease in the family
- A clear and voluntary understanding of what the cycle involves
How the path usually unfolds
- Application, interview and screening tests
- An acceptance decision and a calendar aligned with a recipient plan
- Stimulation medication and monitoring
- Egg collection and a short recovery follow-up
Who may donate depends on the country's rules. This page is not a call for donors. Candidacy depends on screening and on the clinic's acceptance criteria.
