👩⚕️ “Egg donation is not about giving up on motherhood. It is about understanding the medical
reality of each case and choosing the path that offers the best chance of a healthy pregnancy.” ~Dr Laura Rodríguez, fertility expert and gynaecologist
When is egg donation usually considered?
💜 1. Low ovarian reserve: when quantity becomes part of the decision
The ovarian reserve is the number of eggs that is used to determine fertility. The ovarian reserve gives an indication of how the ovaries may respond to stimulation and how many eggs might be available during treatment.
A low ovarian reserve does not always mean pregnancy is impossible with your own eggs. But it can mean that the number of eggs collected in an IVF cycle may be very limited.
🪺 2. Poor egg quality
Poor egg quality can show itself in different ways: low fertilisation rates, slow embryo development, poor-quality embryos, no embryos suitable for transfer, repeated implantation failure or miscarriage.
👩👩👧 3. Egg donation is relevant for all women, not only heterosexual couples
Single women and le***an couples often begin their fertility journey thinking primarily about donor s***m. This is understandable. If there is no male partner, s***m donation is usually the first practical need that comes to mind. However, female fertility still needs to be assessed in the same way.
A single woman may need donor s***m, but she may also have low ovarian reserve.
