No, egg donors do not get paid, as it is illegal to buy and sell eggs in the UK. However, you do get compensated for each completed egg donation cycle for your time and effort.
Yes, egg donation is legal in the UK. It is tightly regulated by the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority (HFEA).
The law was changed in 2005 so that all new HFEA-registered donors are potentially identifiable to any conceived children once they reach the age of 18. Until then, they only have access to non-identifying information, such as your height, weight, hair and eye colour. Once they are 18 they can then contact the HFEA and obtain further details.
The medication is given in the form of injections and you will be required to administer the injections yourself at home. You will attend an appointment with a fertility nurse who will teach you how to administer the injections in the right way. This appointment is called a ‘prep appointment’ and can be done virtually or in person at the clinic to meet your preference.
Due to the risks to egg quality caused by nicotine, smokers cannot be accepted as egg donors. When you apply to become an egg donor, we ask you if you smoke, and we will test your urine for nicotine at your appointments.
If you used to smoke or are trying to stop smoking, you must have no nicotine in your system for at least three months before your donation application. You should then be free from the effects of nicotine, including e-cigarettes, as they still contain nicotine.
