How Egg Donations Help Single Parent and LGBT
Families?

• By - Rite Options

• Having a child can be especially challenging for
  single parent and LGBT families. Using an egg
  donor and gestational carrier can sometimes be
  the only option. There are many young women
  willing to participate in LGBT egg donation or to
  be a gestational carrier for such families and,
  while it can be quite costly, it can be a very
  rewarding process for all involved.

What is an Egg Donor?

• An egg donor is a woman willing to go through an
  extensive process in order to help others start a
  family. The process isnt as simple as filling
  out an egg donor application and donating a few
  eggs one afternoon.

Who is Potential Egg Donor?

• Once a potential egg donor applies, the egg
  donation process lasts several weeks and can
  include
• An extensive medical screening, genetic, and
  psychological screening
• Medications to stop ovulation temporarily along
  with medications to stimulate egg production in
  the ovaries
• A minor surgical procedure to retrieve the eggs.

Choosing Egg Donor From Social Media is Good
Decision or Not? 

• Choosing an egg donor through social media or
  Craigslist can be filled with disappointment,
  especially if the potential egg donor does not
  complete the full clinic application process or
  fails a part of the screening.  By using a
  specialized egg donor agency to help vet the egg
  donor, you eliminate a lot of risk and heartache.

Egg Donation Requirements

• Requirements to become and egg donor are varied
  and based on the program. Age, height, weight,
  family health history, and education are just a
  few of the factors considered when an agency
  recruits an egg donor to its program. The egg
  donor must pass the psychological testing,
  genetic testing and the medical requirements
  before even beginning the procedure.

How to Find an Egg Donor?

• Finding the right egg donor takes time and effort
  and a lot of searching through databases of young
  women willing to donate.  Unless an Intended
  Parent has a sister, cousin or friend that would
  like to donate for them, most Intended Parents
  are relying on their clinic or an Egg Donor
  Agency to assist them in the search.

Fresh Donor Eggs

• Selected through your agency, an egg donor goes
  through an in-depth medical screening at your
  clinic and a psychological screen and genetic
  testing is also performed. Your egg donor agency
  will coordinate appointments and travel for your
  egg donor.

Frozen Donor Eggs

• Already retrieved from screened donors, these are
  available at an IVF clinic or through a
  commercial egg bank, so theres no waiting for a
  donor to be screened or concern over schedule or
  travel expenses
