Understanding Donor-Assisted IVF
At its core, donor-assisted IVF involves the use of donated eggs or sperm to create embryos for implantation. This technique is recommended for a variety of reasons, such as:
Women with diminished ovarian reserve or genetic disorders that may affect egg quality.
Men with low sperm count or severe abnormalities in sperm function.
Same-sex couples or single individuals who require donor gametes to conceive.
By combining advanced medical techniques with personalized care, donor-assisted IVF ensures that the barriers to conception can be overcome, offering an inclusive option for building families.
How the Process Works
Donor Selection
Choosing the right donor is the first and one of the most critical steps. Patients at PMH Fertility Center have access to a comprehensive database of donors, allowing them to select based on physical traits, medical history, and personal preferences.
Ovarian Stimulation and Donor Egg Retrieval
The donor undergoes ovarian stimulation to produce multiple eggs, which are then retrieved through a minimally invasive procedure.
Endometrial Preparation of the Recipient
The recipient receives hormonal treatment to prepare the uterine lining for the implantation of the embryo.
In Vitro Fertilization (IVF)
The retrieved eggs are fertilized with sperm in the laboratory under carefully controlled conditions.
Embryo Cultivation
The fertilized eggs are cultured in the lab to develop into healthy embryos, which are monitored for quality and viability.
Embryo Transfer
The healthiest embryo(s) are transferred into the recipient’s uterus using a simple, non-invasive procedure.
Pregnancy Test
Two weeks after the transfer, a blood test is conducted to confirm the pregnancy.
