Donor Egg IVF

GIVF Fertility specializes in donor egg IVF and is proud to have part in creating one of the nation’s most comprehensive and successful donor egg programs. We offer both frozen donor egg and fresh donor egg services. The ability to provide both fresh and frozen donor egg cycles means that our patients have more options, more control, and can begin treatment quickly. Learn about the Fresh Donor Egg Cycle Process or the Frozen Donor Egg Cycle Process to help you decide which may be right for you.

Who May Consider the Option of Donor Egg IVF?

There are several factors that make the option of donor egg IVF an excellent choice for a patient, including egg quality, diminished ovarian reserve, and a female patient’s age. According to the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, female fertility begins a significant decline at age 32 and more rapidly declines after age 37. After age 35, most women have a substantially decreased egg quality, which directly impacts the chances of conceiving with their own eggs.

There are many indications for donor egg IVF:

  • Age-related diminished ovarian reserve (poor egg quality)
  • Premature ovarian failure due to:
    • Autoimmune disorder
    • Chemotherapy or radiation therapy
    • Genetic causes
    • Environmental causes
    • Unexplained infertility
  • Surgical menopause
  • Carrying a genetic mutation or disease
  • Natural menopause

Donor egg IVF is often prescribed as the most effective treatment for decreased ovarian reserve. It can be an excellent option for those who have struggled with traditional IVF, had multiple miscarriages, or who are over 40 years of age and trying to conceive.

Donor egg IVF opens a world of possibilities and hope for patients who have had difficulties conceiving. In most cases it allows those who could not become pregnant with their own eggs to become pregnant more easily, whether they use fresh or frozen donor eggs.

Search Frozen Donors

Deciding on a fresh donor egg cycle or a frozen donor egg cycle is usually one of the first steps in the process. Some of the same donors who are available for a fresh cycle also have eggs stored in the egg bank. Questions of convenience, timeline, cost, and success are a few key areas in which patients compare the two options in order to decide which is best for them.

Donor Egg IVF FAQs

In general, any patient with a medical or genetic indication for using an egg donor can be a recipient if there are no medical contraindications to pregnancy. We accept donor egg recipients up to the age of 55. The decision to use donor eggs is made in association with the patient and their infertility specialist.

If male factor infertility is an issue, donor egg IVF with intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) into the eggs is also available. Non-surgical sperm aspiration (NSA) can be used in association with ICSI if a patient has had a vasectomy and wishes to avoid vasectomy reversal, or there are other causes of the absence of sperm in the ejaculate. If donor sperm is needed, many highly-screened sperm donors are available from, Fairfax Cryobank.

Regardless of whether a patient chooses a sole or shared match, treatment can begin immediately and will not be required to wait for a donor.

We also have an extensive pool of fully screened, immediately available egg donors, and we offer frozen donor eggs from our in-house egg bank, Fairfax EggBank. If you choose an egg donor who is in high demand, there is a chance you may have to wait for the donor to become available. However, it is our goal to provide our patients with as many options as possible so they will not have to wait unnecessarily to begin treatment.
