7 Signs You’d Be A Great Egg Donor
Have you ever thought about donating your eggs, but weren’t quite sure if you would be a good candidate? If the following 7 traits describe you, you just might be the perfect egg donor!
A Letter to my Egg Donor
My Sweet Egg Donor, I simply love my life! I do not know you, but I feel a special bond with you that I would like to share. I do not have a need to meet you, and do not want anything from you, as you have already given me the world. I just want to share with you my gratitude and let you know how you single-handedly have enhanced my life beyond words.
My Egg Donation Experience
The process was a delight from the start. I have donated 3 times now, and I plan on doing it until they tell me I can't! Each time gets better and better because I get to see my favorite people, Andrea and Lisa! Each donation has gone great and as planned, I would do it over and over again. My only regret is that I didn't do it sooner! It is such a quick and fairly easy process considering the gift you are giving. I am so thankful that I came across TWEB and the wonderful staff they have there. You will feel right at home, and they are always there to answer questions, put your mind at ease, and remind you of how great you are for giving such an amazing gift.
What Are The Risks Of Egg Donation?
Because egg donation is a medical procedure, there is always the risk of infection—just as there is with any type of surgery. An anesthesiologist will always be in the room with donors throughout the entire procedure, and they will administer antibiotics through an I.V. in order to help combat the possibility of infection. Donors should also rest and follow all post-procedural instructions to help further reduce this risk.
Will Donating My Eggs Affect My Ability To Get Pregnant In The Future?
No, your future fertility is not affected by egg donation. Many of our donors go on to have healthy children of their own following their egg donation.
What Is The Retrieval & Recovery Process Like?
The retrieval is done in our office and takes about 15-20 minutes. It is a non-invasive, outpatient surgery where an ultrasound guided needle is inserted through the vaginal wall. The needle to drain the fluid from your ovarian follicles to retrieve the mature eggs. Because this procedure is done vaginally, there are no incisions or scarring. All donors are put under twilight sedation (similar to a wisdom-tooth extraction), so they will not feel any pain or discomfort during the retrieval.
