Donor Egg - Donor Embryo

If your biologic clock indicates that it is unlikely you would conceive with your own eggs, and if carrying and delivering a baby is your goal, you may wish to consider the option for donor egg. Depending on your ovarian reserve, which can be tested by ovarian function testing, donor egg gives you a significantly improved chance to conceive. The program requires you to select either a suitable anonymous candidate from one of several agencies or identify a known suitable donor. The egg donor undergoes ovarian stimulation and egg retrieval while your uterine lining is synchronized to optimize implantation of the embryos produced by uniting your husband's sperm with the donor eggs. We help you establish a good implantation, which will help you deliver a healthy newborn. This is sometimes called prenatal adoption, with your being listed as the mother at birth without entailing further legal issues.

Donor embryo is available to couples that wish to adopt earlier in the process. Cryopreserved embryos, screened for genetic abnormalities and infectious diseases, are available. The couple applies through an agency or cryopreserved embryo storage facility. The adopted embryo is transferred into the adopting mother's uterus. The woman delivers her baby and is considered to be the child's legal mother, without any further adoption legal proceedings.
