Questions and Answers for 18 Year Old Egg Donors

Questions and Answers

Can I Get Pregnant after Egg Donation Program? When Will It Happen?

You can become pregnant in the next cycle after the program. The program doesn’t influence your ovarian reserve. Doctors retrieve the eggs, which could get mature during one period. Therefore, in a month, you will return to regular ovulation and can get pregnant in a natural way. 

Interesting fact! We strongly recommend egg donors not to have unprotected sex 1 month after the retrieval, because they are extremely fertile during this time. Yes, even though doctors make retrieval, some mature eggs stay there and women can easily get pregnant right away. If you don’t want to get pregnant right after the retrieval, make sure to use condoms up to your next period.

Will I Gain Weight in the Course of the Program?

You will not get any excess weight during the egg donation program. Actually, the drugs stimulate egg maturation and do not have any influence on weight. You can feel a little beet bloating like before your period, but no more than that. 

Can I Have any Complications during the Program?

There are complication instances. However, their percentage is quite small, less than 0.1%. Moreover, if you strictly follow the recommendations of doctors and medical staff, they should not threaten you.

How Many Times Can I Be an Egg Donor?

You can participate in the program up to six times. 6-8 Times is the maximal amount of retrievals you can undergo during your whole life in different countries. 

When Is the Next Time I Can Participate in the Program?

18 Year old egg donors can participate in the next egg donation program 3 menstrual cycles after the previous egg retrieval. It is to help the organism fully recover and avoid any complications. 

How Long Does the Whole Course Take?

This question is very individual. The stimulation and retrieval itself take no more than 2 weeks. However, if all the tests are in the norm, and you do not need to take extra medications before joining the program, the average duration is 3 months. It is the time from your first visit to the clinic until full financial compensation.

Does It Hurt? Will I Feel Pain?

The only surgical procedure is egg retrieval. However, it takes place with the use of anesthesia with the help of a thin needle. Therefore, you might feel uncomfortable, but it doesn’t hurt. 

Who Will Use the Eggs I Donate?

Those can be women that can`t get pregnant and feel the happiness of being a mother in a natural way. Disfunction or removal of ovaries, low ovarian reserve or other malfunctions makes it impossible to produce their eggs.

Another group of people who need your help is single men and gay couples who can have their dream babies only through surrogacy and egg donation. 

What Documents Do I Need to Become an Egg Donor?

You need to bring your ID and fill out the initial application form. If you already have your own kids – it would be great if you also bring their birth certificates. Couples prefer egg donors who already have their own healthy kids. 

Am I Guaranteed Privacy?

We guarantee your privacy protection. A couple that receives donor eggs sign an agreement that they will not make any attempt to find the donor and share the donor’s information. They usually know only the general information about the donor, such as height, weight, hair and eye color, education, blood type.

What if I Am Not Chosen for a Program?

When a couple reaches us, they look through the database and choose egg donors according to their appearance and background information. If you are not chosen during the first few months it just means that there were no appropriate matches. Don`t worry, the invitation can be quite unexpected and happen at any time. More than that, you are just 18 and some couples might want an older donor with experience and kids. In any case, you will have a lot of time to find the match and participate, the first enrolment is the hardest one.

If you have any additional questions related to the program participation – contact our consultants using phone calls or messages.
