WHAT IS EGG DONATION?
Egg donation is a treatment option for
conceiving via eggs donated by another
female. This treatment involved in vitro
fertilization, where eggs are mostly first
fertilized in the lab. This treatment is a
great option for females who are trying to
conceive in later years of their life, typically
35 plus, and are facing shortage of their own
eggs. An egg donor may have taken the decision
for altruistic reason or for financial
compensation or both.

Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome OHSS The
medications (gonadotropins) used to stimulate
your ovaries during in-vitro fertilization (IVF)
or associated procedures for fertility treatment
are designed to ensure that a reasonable number
of eggs are obtained to maximize your chances of
pregnancy. Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome
(OHSS) happens when too many ovarian follicles
have developed in response to the usual dosage of
medication. It is a result of the hormones
produced by the ovaries in response to the drugs
given. OHSS is usually mild and causes no more
than a slight lower abdominal discomfort in most
cases. Although uncommon, it warrants medical
attention as it can be potentially life
threatening if left untreated in severe cases.
When detected early and managed appropriately,
the condition can be alleviated

Is choosing an appropriate egg donor a
complicated process ? Egg donation is a highly
successful fertility treatment for those couples
where the female partner has premature menopause,
poor egg quantity or quality due to advanced
female age, or other genetic or egg related
problems What should I look Fir in my donor
egg? Whatever floats your boat. Beautiful, smart,
green eyes, tall, Italian, Catholic, a woman
shows great motivation by going to college
full-time and working part-time, a woman who has
donated her eggs 4 times previously at our
clinic and all 4 cycles resulted in successful
pregnancies, an athletic woman, an artistic
woman, or maybe just a woman who looks a lot like
you. What are the important qualities for a Donor
? Be between the ages of 21 and 30 (Donors
younger than 21 may not be emotionally mature
donors older than 30 are not at peak fertility)
and exhibit maturity, responsibility, and
dependability Be in good physical health as
documented by history and testing
