What Is the Egg Donor Process Like?
The egg donor process involves using eggs donated by a healthy, fertile woman to help intended parents conceive. This treatment option works particularly well for women with diminished ovarian reserve, genetic conditions, or those who have experienced multiple failed IVF cycles.

Medical Evaluation and Preparation
Your journey begins with a comprehensive medical evaluation to determine if egg donation is the right choice for your situation. During this phase, your fertility team will review your medical history, conduct hormone testing, and perform ultrasounds to assess your reproductive health.
Donor Selection and Matching
You’ll gain access to our extensive donor database, featuring diverse and high-quality candidates. Our premium donor selection includes accomplished professionals, models, and individuals with exceptional academic achievements, representing the highest caliber of candidates available.
How Long Does the Egg Donor Process Take?
The timeline for egg donation varies depending on several factors, including donor availability, medical requirements, and coordination logistics. Most intended parents can expect the complete process to take between one and three months from initial consultation to egg retrieval.
The American Society for Reproductive Medicine provides guidelines to ensure all parties receive appropriate medical care and legal protection throughout the process.
What Should You Expect During Egg Donor Screening?
Our donor recruitment process ensures only the most qualified candidates are accepted into our program. Every potential donor must meet strict eligibility requirements before being accepted into our database.
After the match, the donors get a comprehensive screening process that includes several essential components. Medical evaluations assess overall health, reproductive function, and infectious disease status through blood work and physical examinations. Psychological assessments evaluate emotional stability, motivation for donating, and the ability to handle the process requirements. Genetic testing identifies potential hereditary conditions that could affect offspring, while background checks verify personal history and lifestyle factors.
Donor Requirements and Qualifications
Our donors must meet specific criteria to participate in the program. Age requirements typically range from 21 to 32 years old, ensuring optimal egg quality and quantity. Physical health standards include maintaining a healthy BMI, having regular menstrual cycles, and demonstrating no history of substance abuse or significant medical conditions.
Other Qualifications
Additional qualifications focus on educational achievement, emotional maturity, and commitment to the donation process. Our board-certified genetic counselor reviews the family history of every potential donor to identify any inherited conditions, ensuring the highest level of safety for intended parents and their future children.
How Do You Choose the Right Egg Donor?
Selecting an egg donor represents one of the most critical decisions in your fertility journey. Our extensive database offers detailed profiles that enable intended parents to make informed choices based on their preferences and priorities.
Each donor profile includes comprehensive information about physical characteristics, educational background, medical history, and personal interests. Many intended parents consider various factors when making their decision, such as:
