More and more girls today are having a difficult time conceiving. If it is due to infertility or due to medical complications, ladies that cannot conceive all alone rely on egg donors to help them get pregnant. If you are interested in becoming an egg donor the first thing you will need to do is visit contact an egg bank.
On contacting the egg bank you’ll need to ask about their screening process. Some egg banks need an appointment for the first round of screening, while others accept walk ins. If an appointment is needed, make the appointment and complete the first round of screening.
When you complete the original screening process, you’ll need to complete a screening at the clinic. The screening is also a consultation appointment. At the hospital you’ll be put through a collection of tests which you have to pass to become an egg donor. You are also likely to want to supply the egg bank with your medical history and your family’s medical history. Genetic questionnaires are also required in this process. If everything passes the egg banks needs you’ll be cleared for egg donation.
After you are cleared for egg donation you just have to produce healthy and fruitful eggs to give. Many egg banks will give you medication to help stimulate your ovaries so that your body produces many eggs rather than only 1 egg. In this process you will be needed to come in for follow-up appointments so that the doctors can monitor your ovaries, which is done through ultrasounds and blood tests.
The last step involved is giving your eggs, which is the same process for both a standard egg bank and a frozen egg bank. Both sorts of hospitals require you to come into the office for the removal process. The removal of the eggs needs light sedation, but only takes about 30 mins. Once everything is done you can collect a check from the clinic.
Although it is a long and selective process becoming a donor at a donor egg bank is really worth the joy you can bring to other women.
