Egg Donation

Egg Donation Treatment

An egg donor woman donates her eggs to an infertile couple, which are fertilized with the husband’s sperm, and resulting good grade embryos are transferred back to the wife’s uterus after optimal preparation.

Donor eggs offer women with ovarian failure or no ovaries the possibility of having children Patients often resort to donor eggs as a last resort It is crucial to fully understand the process before making a decision. Donor eggs will produce a healthy baby, and it is far cheaper than repeated unsuccessful attempts. Patients often have many questions and concerns when discussing donor egg procedures. Donor eggs are more likely to result in a pregnancy than any other treatment. This would allow more families to experience the joy of welcoming a baby into their lives. Sunflower Infertility & IVF Center seeks to provide egg donation services with the consent and protection of the couple.

According to new ART ACT 2021, Donor should be screened and supply by ART Bank and there would be a legal contract between donor and recipient. Donor needs to be under go certain blood test and other tests to see the fitness. One donor can donate eggs only one recipient couple only.

Egg Donation 1

Egg Donation 2

Indication

  • Advanced age of female partner(>40 years) is associated with a decline in quantity and quality of her eggs and hence decreased fertility.
  • Certain women suffer from decreased ovarian reserve( low AMH) even before they reach 40 years of age
  • Early onset of menopause (premature ovarian failure) which can occur in women as early as their 20’s or 30’s can require a woman to use donor eggs to grow her family.
  • Some women are born without ovaries or other reproductive organs. Sometimes a woman’s reproductive organs have been damaged due to disease or have been forced to have them surgically removed or those whose ovaries have been damaged by chemotherapy or radiotherapy which she may have undergone for cancer treatment.
  • Another indication would be a genetic disorder on part of the woman that can be over-comed by using eggs from healthy egg donor.
  • Many women have none of these issues, but continue to be unsuccessful using their own eggs (multiple IVF failure)
