From the very first contact to the moment of egg collection, our compassionate team ensures that donors not only feel informed but also deeply cared for and supported every step of the way.
Hi, I’m Samantha, a 31-year-old full-time stay-at-home mum to my lively two-year-old daughter. My days are filled with the joyful chaos of motherhood, but I wouldn’t have it any other way. Here’s a bit about me…
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).
We have measures in place to reduce any risks and our team will monitor you closely during stimulation and after egg collection. The egg collection carries a risk of infection and bleeding. There is also a risk of hyperstimulation - a condition where the ovaries respond quickly to the drugs, producing more eggs than expected.
This is why hormone tests are carried out as part of the screening process, as it allows us to see how your ovaries are likely to respond. You are also monitored regularly once the drugs have been administered in order to prevent hyperstimulation. If this occurs, some women feel bloated and abdominal discomfort, but you will be advised to take pain relief and drink plenty of water.
Please be assured that you will be in safe hands with a team of experts that will make sure you are cared for at every step of your donation.
We have lots of patients who are looking for an egg donor to help them reach their dream and have a family of their very own. We have a shortage of egg donors from ethnic backgrounds, and this does mean that donor choices are very limited for our patients who want a donor with the same ethnicity as themselves. They may have to wait for a long time to find that donor, so we always ask for donations from varied backgrounds.
You can still donate if you are adopted, but you will need to know the full medical history of your biological family on both your maternal and paternal sides until your grandparents. As long as you meet all the other requirements, being adopted won’t affect you being accepted onto our donor programme.
Typically, egg donors are healthy women between the ages of 18 and 35, with no history of genetic diseases.
Yes. Under the 10 family limit rule, any single egg donor can only create a maximum of 10 families from her eggs. We recommend a maximum donation of six cycles only.
