Egg Donation: A Profound Gift to Help Others Fulfill Their Parenthood Dreams
At Nicosia Fertility, we strive to make your experience as rewarding and straightforward as possible, providing comprehensive care throughout your journey.
Understanding the Egg Donation Process
Step 1: Initial Inquiry
Start by filling out a detailed questionnaire to determine your eligibility. This can be done on our website or by contacting our donor coordinator at info@nicosiafertility.com for more information.
Step 2: Screening
Undergo a series of screenings to confirm your suitability as a candidate. This includes checks of ovarian health, genetic background, and infectious diseases. Additionally, a fertility assessment will be conducted to inform you about your future family planning.
Step 3: Counseling
Meet with our coordinator to discuss the implications of your donation. It is important to consider how this affects you, your family, the recipient, and any future children born as a result of your donation.
Step 4: Ovarian Stimulation
If you decide to proceed, your cycle will be synchronized with the recipient’s cycle, usually using oral contraceptives. You will then begin daily injections of follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) to stimulate egg production, which we will monitor through regular ultrasound examinations.
Step 5: Egg Retrieval
Approximately 36 hours after the final trigger injection, the egg retrieval procedure will be performed under light sedation. This quick procedure involves collecting eggs from the ovaries using a fine needle guided by ultrasound.
Who Can Become a Donor?
Egg donors are typically healthy women aged 18 to 35 with no personal or family history of hereditary diseases. Donors must undergo thorough medical examinations and psychological evaluations to confirm their suitability.
Why Become a Donor?
Egg donation can be an inspiring experience, providing couples and individuals with the precious opportunity to build a family. It is a decision that can significantly impact the lives of others, bringing hope and happiness.
Legal and Ethical Considerations
Egg donation at Nicosia Fertility adheres to strict ethical standards and privacy laws, ensuring the anonymity of all participants. You will have the opportunity to write a personal description and a kind message for the children born from your donation, although direct contact with recipients is not allowed.
Post-Procedure Care and Support
After the procedure, we maintain contact to ensure your health and well-being. It is recommended to rest for a couple of days, and you can typically return to normal activities afterward.
