What are the success rates of donor eggs?
Each stage of the process also has its own success rates: the chance of a fertilized donor egg producing properly developing embryos is about 80\%, the chance that those embryos will implant correctly in a uterus is about 75-85\%, and the chance of clinical pregnancy is about 55-65\%.
Are there long term effects of egg donation?
Egg donors have reported long-term effects including aggressive breast cancer, loss of fertility, and fatal colon cancer, sometimes occurring just a few years after donation. Without any family history of these illnesses, they suspect their egg donation as the cause.
Can a menopausal woman get pregnant with donor eggs?
After menopause, a woman no longer produces eggs and thus cannot become pregnant naturally. But although eggs succumb to this biological clock, pregnancy is still possible using a donor egg. Therefore, all of the women in the study had an egg from a younger woman implanted into her uterus.
How do I choose the right egg donor?
When you’re choosing an egg donor, consider these four criteria:
- Health History. Your donor needs a pristine health history and genetic health report if you want to move forward with her.
- Physical Appearance. Sound superficial?
- Education.
- Learn About Your Egg Donor Through a Video.
Does ovarian rejuvenation improve egg quality?
Even postmenopausal women still have on average 1,000 dormant eggs inside their ovaries. Ovarian rejuvenation is a newly pioneered procedure intended to re-awake egg maturation and development within the ovary and potentially improve egg quality.
What is the success rate for donor egg donation?
“All ages are reported together because previous data show that patient age does not materially affect success with donor eggs.” As shown in the chart below, the success rate for IVF with donor eggs fresh cycle – is on average 65.9\%; while the success rate for live birth is approximately 10\% less (55.6\%).
What is the best age to get pregnant with eggs?
The quality of donor eggs greatly influences IVF success rates. Donors are usually aged 18-35, with the qualifying age differing in various countries. In some countries, you can qualify if you are aged 19-20 but below 30. The best eggs the clinics receive are those coming from donors who have had at least one baby before.
Can I give birth after IVF treatment with donor eggs?
Giving birth to a healthy child after IVF treatment with donor eggs is a rarely presented outcome. The reason is simple: these are the lowest of all the statistics. Fertility centres often do not know if a pregnancy ended in a live birth or not – they are just not able to monitor a patient over such a long period of time.
Why don’t all in vitro clinics have the same birth rate data?
Some in vitro clinics are not able to monitor a single patient over a longer period of time, so they simply do not have such data. Healthy baby births rates from egg donor programs are (on average) 10-20\% lower than the percentage of clinical pregnancies (at 6 weeks) achieved per embryo transfer.
