The Egg Donation Process

Egg donation is when women go through part of the IVF process to collect some of their eggs. These will then be donated for someone else's fertility treatment, research or training.

The process of egg donation consists of 5 steps:

Step 1. Matching

You can book the oocytes at Ovoria egg bank by filling in the registration form on our website. By creating an account on our website, you will get access to the egg donor profiles. After choosing an egg donor, our specialist will confirm that the donor is available, and the process starts. Then the woman will get a list of all the examinations she needs to have.

Step 2. SCREENING AND MONITORING FOR THE DONOR AND RECIPIENTS

During this step, the doctor will begin ovarian stimulation with the donor, but meanwhile, it's time to prepare uterine lining with a hormone called Estradiol Valerate. Our doctors will control this process remotely, and at the end of this, women have to do ultrasound scans.

Step 3. EGG RETRIEVAL

During this stage, the egg will be retrieved and then be fertilized by the partner’s sperm. After fertilization, embryos are cultivated for up to 5 days and then ready for transfer to the recipient uterus.

Step 4. EMBRYO TRANSFER

At this stage, the doctor will retrieve the egg and fertilize it with the partner’s sperm. This stage can be done in two ways: visiting our clinic to get fresh sperm or sending the frozen sample. It will take five days to cultivate fertilized embryos.

Step 5. PREGNANCY TEST

In two weeks after the previous stage, a woman will have to do a blood test for HCG. If it’s positive – a woman is pregnant. The doctor will prescribe her medicines for the next two weeks until your ultrasound scan.
