Western Fertility Institute is actively involved in every step of the process of finding you the best agencies to help locate an egg donor. Our goal is to make the process as easy as possible. We believe that egg donors provide an amazing and generous gift – giving hope to individuals or couples who dream of having a family.
Who Is the Right Candidate for an Egg Donation Procedure?
Not everyone qualifies to be an egg donor in California. We employ strict standards for choosing the right candidates for egg donation at our Los Angeles agency. Egg donors must provide a comprehensive family medical history, which we scour for any signs of potential issues for the eggs. We also look for women who have:
- No history of sexually transmitted diseases
- Not smoked or used recreational drugs
- Hormone levels high enough to support the egg retrieval process
We understand you will have many questions about the woman who supplies your donor egg and her personal history. We strive to answer all your queries and match you with the best candidate.
Finding an Egg Donor Agency
You can find many egg donor agencies in Los Angeles, though we, of course, recommend using Western Fertility Institute, where we have high embryo donation success rates. Things you should consider as you search for the right place to begin your egg donation procedure include:
- Past success: Ask the agency about their success rates of embryo donation and see how that compares to local and national averages
- Quality of care: Do you feel comfortable
at the office? Do you like the doctors you meet? Do the people you interact with treat you as an individual and listen to your concerns? - Selection: You should get an adequate number of potential candidates for your egg donation. You want to have choices, and you should have an opportunity to ask any lingering questions you may have.
Western Fertility Institute treats everyone seeking an egg donor with the compassion and understanding you deserve. We understand this can be a difficult journey. We want you to receive the best results while also maintaining our sensitivity to your needs as we move along.
We support both the women who donate eggs in California and the women who will receive them for implantation. We can act as the liaison with your egg donor and ensure everything stays on track for a smooth procedure. We take care of every detail as we help you create the family you have dreamed about.
