Many women need egg donation treatment for various reasons- some may
experience a premature menopause at an early age, others are unable to
use their own eggs due to the effects of chemotherapy or radiotherapy.
There are also women who may be a carrier of a genetic disorder and do
not want to pass their condition onto their unborn child.
Some of these women are fortunate enough to have a relative or friend
who can help them, but many couples do not have any help and need
assistance to get an egg donor. Egg donors are unique and remarkable
woman. Their kindness and generosity allows many childless couples to
achieve their ultimate dream of having a family.
With increasing awareness about fertility treatment options more women
are coming forward and offering their eggs to help others to fulfill
their dreams.
Egg Donation
Who can be a donor ?
Ideally, egg donors should be between the ages of
21 and 35 years and have no history of inheritable conditions. We try to
match donor and recipient physical characteristics as closely as
possible.
What tests will be done before I am accepted?
All donors will be tested for HIV antibody, hepatitis, syphilis,
haemoglobin and blood grouping.
How many visits will I have to make to the hospital?
Under normal circumstances, donors make three and occasionally four
visits to the hospital. The first involves a consultation with the
doctor, nurse, counsellor and ultrasonographer. This is an opportunity
for you to find out more about egg donation. This appointment does not
commit you in anyway to becoming an egg donor.
If you decide to become a donor your next visit will be once you have
commenced your treatment cycle, where an ultra sound scan will be
carried out to determine how you are responding to the fertility
injections. Many of our donors live outside Jaipur, for these women we
will often be able to organise some of your ultrasound scans at a local
infertility clinic.
What will happen if I change my mind?
You are free to withdraw consent to the egg donation at any time until
the embryos are used, without threat of financial penalty or fear of
recrimination. If you are undergoing sterilisation or other related
surgery, those procedures will still be performed on the terms already
agreed.
Will being a donor affect my fertility?
Many of our donors have donated several times and have continued to have
children of their own.
