Egg and Semen Donation at Fertidonors: Everything You Need to Know

At Fertidonors, we specialize in egg and semen donation to help individuals and couples who wish to start a family. This process is fundamental in assisted reproduction treatments and is carried out with the highest standards of quality and safety.

If you are interested in donating eggs or semen, here you will find all the information about the process, requirements, and benefits of being a donor at Fertidonors.

What is Egg and Semen Donation?

Egg and semen donation is an altruistic act through which a person donates their gametes to help other people conceive. The donated gametes can be used in in vitro fertilization (IVF) or artificial insemination (AI) procedures.

At Fertidonors, donations are made safely and anonymously, complying with all medical and ethical protocols.

Who can be a donor?

To ensure the quality of the donated gametes, at Fertidonors we follow a rigorous selection process. The requirements to be a donor are:

Egg donors:

  • Women between 20 and 25 years old in good health.

  • Adequate ovarian reserve.

  • No history of hereditary genetic diseases.

  • Healthy BMI (Body Mass Index).

  • Do not smoke or use drugs.

  • Willingness to undergo medical examinations and genetic tests.

Donor Frequently Asked Questions Egg Donors:

  • Does donating eggs affect my future fertility? No. Donation does not decrease your ovarian reserve or affect your chances of becoming a mother. Only eggs that would naturally be lost in that month are stimulated.

  • Is hormonal stimulation or retrieval painful? Stimulation can cause mild discomfort (bloating, tenderness), but it is well tolerated. The retrieval is performed under sedation, so you will not feel pain during the procedure.

  • What tests do I need to undergo to be a donor? You will need to go through a medical evaluation, laboratory tests, a genetic study, a psychological evaluation, and an ultrasound to assess your ovarian reserve.

Semen Donors:

  • Can I donate semen multiple times? Yes, but there are limits. You can donate several times, as long as your samples meet the standards and the number of recipient families allowed per country is not exceeded.

  • Will my identity ever be revealed? No. In banks that guarantee anonymity, like ours, your identity is protected. Neither the patients nor the future children can access your personal data.

  • What requirements must I meet to be a semen donor? Be between 18 and 35 years old, be in good health, not use substances, have completed or be pursuing studies, and pass medical, psychological, and genetic exams.
