Egg Donation

Give someone a
beginning

Whether you are considering donating or receiving donor eggs, we explain every step honestly — the medicine, the timeline, the risks and the support around you.

Donation process

Four clear stages

01

Apply & screen

Health history, bloodwork, ultrasound and counselling.

02

Match

Recipients are matched with a verified donor profile.

03

Stimulate

10–12 days of monitored hormone injections.

04

Retrieve

A 15–20 minute sedated procedure, home the same day.

Could you be a donor?

  • Aged 21–32 with regular menstrual cycles
  • Non-smoker with a healthy BMI range
  • No untreated hereditary conditions in close family
  • Able to attend monitoring visits over two weeks
Apply as a donor

Honest answers

No. You are born with millions of eggs. The donation process retrieves eggs that would otherwise be lost in that cycle — it does not deplete your reserve.

The procedure is done under sedation so you feel nothing during it. Mild cramping and bloating for 1–2 days afterwards is normal and passes quickly.

Anonymity policies vary by country and clinic. Our coordinators walk you through the options and legal framework in your location before you commit.

From initial application to retrieval is typically 6–10 weeks. Screening and matching take the most time; the stimulation and retrieval phase is under two weeks.
