The process of embarking on an egg donation program can be quite daunting to consider if one needs donor eggs or considering being the very special giving one to offer this scarce and precious gift of life. The donate eggs procedure is like any thing in life, once explained it becomes understood.
A confirmed egg donor is a woman aged between 18 and 34 who has been thoroughly screened from a medical and psychological perspective. She embarks on an egg donor program to avail her donor eggs to a recipient desperate to have a child of his/ her own. The donate eggs proceduure entails a process of after the screening of both parties the synchronisation of menstrual cycles. The recipient's body needs to behave as if it were making the donor eggs so that when the embryos are transferred, the process feels natural for the body.
For the egg donor, she takes a course of medication to stimulate egg development over a period of around 14 days once her period starts. She is regularly seen by a fertility specialist to assess how her body is responding and the number of eggs likely to be retrieved. This careful and close consideration of her during this time is to optimise the success rates of egg donation and health of the egg donor.
For the recipient, she is given a dose of estrogen to encourage her womb's lining to become ready for pregnancy. On the day of egg retrieval, this medication is upped to include progesterone. The recipient is also medically stopped from ovulating, if she still does.
On the day of ovulation, the eggs are retrieved using a cathetar directly from the follicles on the ovaries. This is a safe process done under anaesthetic and requires a morning for the egg donor. These donor eggs are then given to the recipient and immediately fertilised by the sperm. After five days of monitoring the development of embryos, the two best ones are transferrred into the ready recipient.
So, it is not a hugely complex process, but requires facilitation and administration by experts - egg donation agency and fertility clinic - to guide the process for both and optimise the outcome.
