- Why is this a guaranteed program?
- Are there any blastocysts left to freeze?
- How are donors evaluated?
We guarantee that a minimum of 6 mature eggs (the average is 8-9) will be allocated to each recipient. And we also guarantee that at least one blastocyst (day 5 embryo) will be transferred.
Around 85% of recipients have more than one blastocyst and can freeze them for a second attempt. Implantation rate of frozen blastocysts is very high, giving a new chance to get a pregnancy in the future.
Our donors are screened following most of the American Society of Reproductive Medicine (ASRM) guidelines. Their medical personal and familial history is assessed by a geneticist. They have an infectious (HIV, hepatitis B and C and syphilis) and genetic (karyotype and a large panel a genetic diseases using Recombine) screening. They also are evaluated by a psychologist.
How long is the waiting list?
Average time from the day you decide to receive donated eggs to the day the embryos are transferred to your uterus is about 2-3 months. One of the advantages of such a large egg donation program is that everything is performed in very short time.
egg donation abroad cost
This is a very frequent question. Egg Donation abroad is usually less costly due to many reasons: Cost of egg donation is prohibitive in many places. The reason is that egg donation includes the cost of a regular IVF plus the cost of the donor. In some countries, cost of the donor is too high because the payment is very high. In some other countries, cost of IVF is high too because medical fees are high. However, there are some programs that have characteristics that reduce the cost, still achieving very high success rates. One of them is the shared egg donor cycles: if the eggs of one donor is shared by more than one recipient, all the costs are shared too and the price goes down. Besides, in some countries medical fees are lower than in others (and that doesn’t mean worse quality, it is just related with the cost of living in each country). Finally, in some countries the donors just receive a small reimbursement which reduces the costs a lot.
What do we do? We have a shared egg donor program where each recipient has a guarantee of receiving at least 6 mature eggs. In average, they receive 8-9 mature eggs. It means that if one donor has 9 eggs, they are not shared and only one recipient receives all of them. Besides, as in Argentina cost of living and medical fees are lower than in most developed countries, IVF cost is reduced too. In summary, cost of egg donation could be 2-3 times lower than in other countries.
