Learn About the Egg Donation Process
Knowing what to expect as you consider becoming an egg donor can help solidify if this journey is right for you. Below is a brief look at the egg donation process:
Application and Intake
Once you submit your egg donor application, it usually takes 2-3 weeks from online application submission to final intake call.
Apply to Become an Egg DonorMatching
After you have been approved, you will be matched to the intended parents and a Match Manager who will help you navigate necessary appointments.
Medical Screening
Part of the egg donor application process is a mental health consultation, which includes a psychological screening, as well as a medical screening. We do this to ensure the health and security of our egg donors. We want to make sure the young women who apply are ready for this journey.
The Medication Cycle
To ensure egg development, we guide you through necessary medications involved with the egg donation cycle and support you as you work with your doctor on this protocol. Your health and security is our priority throughout the treatment cycle.
Some of the medications you are encouraged to take include: birth control at the start, corticosteroids, follicle stimulating hormone, Gonadotropin-releasing hormone antagonist & more.

The egg retrieval procedure is done at the IVF center. It is a necessary outpatient surgical procedure needed to retrieve the eggs. You’ll want to spend the day taking it easy following the procedure and have a family member or friends stay with you and get you home.
The End and the Beginning
After your surgical procedure, you have officially become an egg donor!
See Our Egg Donor Requirements & Qualifications
We want the best for our egg donors and our intended parents, which is why we have established a set of egg donor requirements and qualifications for potential egg donors. These include age requirements, BMI, family medical history and more as a part of our screening process.
If you do not qualify to become an egg donor, but still feel called to help intended parents build their families, surrogacy is another option. Surrogate mother requirements differ from egg donor qualifications, so you may still be able to help a family and fulfill your dream.

Do you still have questions? That’s okay! Becoming an egg donor is a big step, but we are so grateful you are interested.
