LittleLady and anyone else familiar with egg donation

A good friend of mine is interested in possibly donating eggs. She's not sure where to start. I love that she is considering this. Does anyone know of any resources that can help her get started? TIA!

Re: LittleLady and anyone else familiar with egg donation

  • I have a labmate that did this. She just googled egg donation in our state and found several clinics/ RE groups. She met with two and did it with the group she felt the best with. So perhaps google or just looking up some IVF clinics?

  • I know the RE office I go to has a whole pamphlet on it and page on their website dedicated to it.  That is where I would think to start.

  • It's awesome that your friend is considering egg donation!

    The best places to start are: www.pved.org & www.resolve.org Those are probably the two most reputable sources of information.  Your friend will need to consider a few things when choosing a donation agency, like if she wants to know anything about the couple she is helping (ie open donation). 

    I would be happy to chat with her directly if she has any questions :)  I adore my egg donor and I honestly feel like she saved my life.  There are also a few egg donors on the "third party reproduction" board on The Bump.
