IVF WITH DONATION
IVF with donation is a fertility treatment that involves using donated eggs, sperm, or both to help individuals or couples achieve pregnancy when their own gametes are not viable. This process provides a pathway to parenthood by utilizing carefully selected donor materials, increasing the chances of a successful pregnancy and the joy of starting or expanding a family.
In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) is the gold standard of fertility medicine and the most effective fertility treatment available. IVF treatment offers the highest success rates and quickest time to pregnancy of any Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART).
What is IVF with Donation?
IVF with donation offers recipients the opportunity to choose from a pool of carefully screened and healthy egg and sperm donors, providing a higher likelihood of achieving a healthy pregnancy.
Donor matching is a meticulous process that considers factors such as physical characteristics, medical history, and genetic compatibility, allowing intended parents to find the best fit for their family. This treatment is a lifeline for those who might not have viable gametes of their own, providing hope and a path to parenthood with the added benefit of genetic diversity.
Duration of the Treatment
The duration of IVF with Donation treatment for the donation receiving patients is 5 days. Patient decides when to take the treatment and her menstrual cycle date is manipulated accordingly. We only work with fresh donors, so the donor is selected once the patient decides on when to start treatment.
