Please contact us to discuss your selections and let us know any questions or concerns you may have. At this time, our agency will send you an agreement with a cost estimate for your signature. Once we receive all these back, the matching process will commence with your donor and other providers that will be involved in the egg retrieval procedure and legal matters concerned.
Matching Process
The matching process will be lead by an EDSI professional. We will guide you through all necessary steps, including coordination and facilitation of appointments and contacts with the donor, psychologists, attorneys, and the fertility specialist. Depending on your anonymity preferences and the donor’s, you may meet personally or not.
After selection, the donor will go through further psychological and medical screening. The egg retrieval will only take place, once the donor has passed all tests and received medical clearances.
Egg Retrieval and Completion of Cycle
2-3 weeks prior to the egg retrieval procedure, the donor will start taking hormone injections to stimulate her ovaries and produce mature eggs.
The Egg retrieval is non-surgical and done under sedation. It takes approximately 20-30 minutes to perform.
After confirmation of the retrieval from the physician, final fees are sent to the Egg Donor.
