Egg donation provides an opportunity for women who are unable to conceive using their own eggs. Donors can be someone you know or provided by the clinic. This treatment is ideal for women who have experienced:

• Hormonal problems
• Early menopause
• Surgeries affecting fertility
• Genetic issues
• Chemotherapy or radiotherapy
• Missed the opportunity to conceive naturally

Egg donation is also beneficial for women who have not had success with standard IVF or ICSI treatments due to low egg quality or egg deficiency. With egg donation, all women, regardless of their circumstances, can achieve pregnancy, even during menopause.

When is Egg donation recommended?

Egg donation is recommended in the following cases:

• High risk of passing on genetic disease.
• Ovarian damage from illness or medical treatments.
• Poor egg quality discovered during IVF cycles.
• Premature menopause.

Stages of Egg Donation Treatment

Stage 1: Initial Contact and Planning

Once you contact us, a patient coordinator will provide a comprehensive overview of the process, discuss necessary tests, and understand your personal situation.

Stage 2: Donor Selection

An embryologist selects egg donors based on the couple’s preferences, including ethnicity, physical attributes, and blood group. Donors undergo comprehensive testing before final approval.

Stage 3: Synchronization and Preparation

The menstrual cycles of the donor and recipient are synchronized using medication. This preparation starts on the 2^nd or 3^rd day of their menstrual periods and lasts about 12 days.

Stage 4: Egg Collection and Fertilization

After approximately 12 days of preparation, the donor undergoes egg collection. Eggs are fertilized with the father’s sperm. Each donor provides eggs exclusively for one couple, ensuring at least 10 healthy, mature eggs. The embryos develop in our laboratory incubators. The recipient’s endometrium is prepared simultaneously for pregnancy.

Stage 5: Embryo Transfer

Embryo transfer occurs on the 3rd or 5th day after fertilization. The best embryos are transferred to the mother in a painless procedure guided by ultrasound for optimal placement. The recipient rests for a while after the transfer to ensure the best chances of implantation.

A minimum of 10-12 fresh, mature eggs is guaranteed per cycle. Egg donors are often mothers or have a successful donation history. Donors are matched to couples based on preferences, including skin, hair and eye color, and ethnic origin.

Egg donation is anonymous and it involves the protection of the identity of the egg donor and the intended parents. Therefore, it will not be possible for the couple or any children born as a result of this treatment to contact the egg donor in the future. Additionally, the egg donor will not be able to contact the couple or any children born as a result of this treatment.
