Congratulations on making the exciting decision to become a parent! Taking the first steps of this incredible journey can feel both thrilling and daunting simultaneously. There are many options to become a parent, but The World Egg and Sperm Bank is here to make building a family a simple reality. While every sperm bank and fertility clinic has unique processes, rest assured with The World Egg and Sperm Bank, the egg donor recipient process is simplified as we are committed to guiding you along the way. Getting started is quick and easy and can begin from the comfort and privacy of your own home. Here’s what you need to know.
Selecting The Donor That Is Right For You
When you are searching for an egg donor, it is essential to find an egg donor that is the right fit for you. Not all donors will be the right match for all future parents.
When selecting a donor, however, you do not need to worry about the donor’s health or egg quality. Every egg donor must meet fourteen critical requirements to participate in our program, including demographics, physical health, mental health, comprehensive medical history, and the donor’s overall comfort level. We take every measure to ensure the donor is an excellent fit for the intended parents.
The World Egg and Sperm Bank is one of the only egg banks that meets every donor in person. We arrange for them to visit our facility during the donation process, which helps us ensure the donor’s safety and health. It also allows us to have complete transparency with future parents about the consistent quality of our gametes. Since eggs are retrieved and stored in our single state of the art facility prior to shipping to the recipient’s clinic.
Future parents do not have to delay the egg donor recipient process or wait to begin their donor search. Review our egg and sperm donors online from the comfort and privacy of your home or wherever suits you best. If a donor piques your interest, you can register for a free account to view their complete profile.
Our caring representatives, many of which have personal experience in becoming a parent via donation, are waiting to speak with you and answer your pressing questions. Once you let your preferred clinic know that you are ready to proceed, we’ll do the rest to get you on your way to parenthood.
Consulting With Your Clinic
In order to proceed with the egg donor recipient process, you will need to consult with your local clinic in order to begin fertility planning or arrange IVF services.
The World Egg and Sperm Bank does not offer fertility planning or IVF services. Instead, we are solely focused on donor care and gamete quality. This ensures future parents receive the best possible results with healthy, high-quality donor gametes. Our focus on the donor side and process allows future parents the comfort and flexibility to work with their preferred clinic or a clinic close to home without the inconvenience and expense of travel.
Rest assured that we will work directly with your clinic to coordinate safely shipping the donor gametes to your clinic. There is no additional work on your end.
Preparing To Become An Egg Donor Recipient
Egg donation may be the right option for women with certain chromosomal or genetic conditions. It may be the best treatment for women whose ovaries were surgically removed or failed prematurely. Women with a history of recurrent pregnancy loss or failed IVF cycles may benefit from egg donation. Finally, post-menopausal women and male same-sex couples are also potential candidates.
In short, there are many reasons why future parents might begin this journey, and the preparation required to receive an egg donation will look slightly different depending on the intended mother or parents’ circumstances.
Your preferred clinic will likely order several tests as a part of the preparation process. These tests will help to determine the best course for success, but the specific tests will vary depending on the intended mother’s age and other pre-existing health factors.
For egg donor recipients, standard tests include saline sonograms of the uterus to ensure health, basic blood tests, pap smears, and potentially mammograms for women over 40. In some cases, diabetes screenings and EKGs to assess the heart may be necessary. Your team of fertility specialists will advise you accordingly and guide you to all the appropriate testing to ensure success.
Additionally, under medical supervision, future mothers may require lifestyle modifications and changes to improve the outcome of their donation. Your IVF care team will assess you thoroughly and provide you with all the necessary instructions while working with The World Egg and Sperm Bank to ensure a smooth donation process.
