Oocyte Donation Required Information

EGG DONATION (YOU CAN GET PREGNANT EVEN AFTER MENOPAUSE)

    Egg donation has the advantage that the couple can share a pregnancy, whose half of the genetic make-up comes from the father. Oocyte Donation or OD cannot protect the expectant mother from the complications of pregnancy and childbirth.  Women who have children by OD have exactly the same risk of an abnormality in their children as those who conceive naturally, based on the same age of the donor. Since the donor is on the average in her early 20s, this risk is low.  There is no decrease or increase in the risk of congenital abnormality due to the technique.   

      As with the natural process of bearing a child with one's own eggs, the loving bond between the mother and the child is formed, regardless of the genetic origin of the donated egg. This is not greatly different from the donor sperm situation, except that donor eggs are even more favorable for bonding, because the mother identifies with the baby (regardless of genetic origin) by carrying it. The emotional bonding with the child, including the child’s personality, intelligence, value system, and even athletic ability come from—genes or environment  Donor sperm is only occasionally used these days because of ICSI, and donor sperm requires much deeper psychological preparation than donor eggs. The fact that the child has been carried for nine months in the uterus results in solid bonding between mother and baby, regardless of the genetic origin of the egg.  More

Donor Egg Background

     The introduction and widespread use of advanced reproductive technology has enabled millions of couples to achieve their dream of having a family.  There are a growing group of women who through traditional treatments are unsuccessful because their ovaries are either unable to produce eggs -- called oocytes – or their oocytes lack the quality to create an embryo and finally a healthy baby. 

     The first report of successful pregnancy trough egg donation was in 1984. After more than 20 years, egg donation is viable option for more than 15% of the couples seeking fertility treatments.    Oocyte donation “OD” is process in which the sperm from the recipient man fertilizes an oocyte from a donor, whose subsequent embryo is inserted into his partner’s uterus with the intention of her becoming pregnant.  Thus, oocyte donation is a common and routine treatment option for many infertile couples.

     OD has the advantage that the couple can share a pregnancy, whose half the genetic make-up comes from the father.  OD cannot protect the expectant mother from the complications of pregnancy and childbirth.  Women who have children by OD have exactly the same risk of an abnormality in their children as those who conceive naturally, based on the same age of the donor. Since the donor is on the average in her early 20s, this risk is low.  There is no decrease or increase in the risk of congenital abnormality due to the technique.  More
