Approximately 1.6% of children born every year in the United States are born using egg donation and surrogacy. Nowadays, more and more women are willing to donate their eggs, and that is a good thing for couples and individuals searching for the ideal match to assist them in their family-building journey. However, this also makes choosing your perfect egg donor challenging and that is where an egg donation agency comes in.
There are plenty of options for Intended Parents looking for Donor Eggs and women looking to donate eggs in California, New York, and other places in the US. Hence, choosing an egg donor agency to work with can be a little confusing.
For many prospective egg donors, this decision boils down to trusting an agency with vast experience in the fertility industry and a reputation for offering continuous support all through the entire process. And for hopeful parents, a lot of questions will come up during the egg donation process, such as – medical questions, legal questions, and accounting questions.
Worry not! Our expert team at Coastal Fertility Medical Center will be there to answer all your queries.
In the following piece, we look at the most important factors you need to consider when looking for an agency to work with as an Intended Parent or Egg Donor. Some of these factors are:
The screening process varies from one egg donor agency to the other. Some programs are also more comprehensive than others. So, it is important to ask your potential agencies about their Egg Donor selection criteria:
We also carry out a background check for legal problems on donors.
A good donor database starts with a thorough screening process, but it also depends on several other factors like:
We are now in a time when people check online reviews before making any choices, from where to eat to where to purchase new designer bags and so on.
Given that selecting an egg donor agency is one of the most important personal decisions you will need to make whether you are a donor or to-be-parent, conduct a thorough search about their reputation. Learn what past egg donors have said about the process and their experiences with the agency.
Some prospective donors also wish to donate directly to eggs banks. However, note that these banks don’t work the same way as agencies.
For instance, egg banks are established with the sole aim of offering known egg donation, and the success rate is usually not as high as when working with an agency.
A good egg donor agency will comply with all the necessary regulations and have great working relationships with various fertility and IVF clinics.
Ask about the agency’s:
Often, the case managers at the egg donor agencies determine the kind of experience donors would have. Although your intuitions will be more important than any checklist, here are some things you need to consider:
Selecting an egg donor is one of the most crucial personal decisions you will make as Intended Parents. Does the egg donor agency offer you:
If you conceive with a donor’s egg, it’s crucial that you are educated on any medical developments that can happen. Ask if the agency:
Cost is one of the most important things to consider when researching fertility treatments. Are the egg donor costs and agency fees documented and well explained? Check if the agency offers:
The axiom that experience is the best teacher goes when selecting an egg donor agency to partner with.
At Coastal Fertility Medical Center, we have refined our programs to provide more support and options for Intended Parents, Egg Donors, and Surrogates.
Personal experience is also important!

Egg donors can either be known or unknown. However, most egg donation today is anonymous, with the hopeful parents selecting their donor after partnering with egg donor agencies.
To help you choose your ideal donor, you will be provided with important information about the donors, such as
Like sperm donors, women who want to donate eggs will need to undergo a thorough screening process before they are allowed to do so. These include:
The use of an egg donor agency makes the process easier since the agency conducts the initial screenings of the donors before a second screening at our fertility center.

Following the Preimplantation Genetic Screening process, which helps ensure there are normal chromosome numbers and detects possible genetic disorders, the most healthy embryo(s) are selected to be implanted into your or your chosen surrogate’s womb. 2 weeks after the transfer of the embryo, your physician will conduct a final blood test to determine the level of hCG (human chorionic gonadotropin) in your body. Increased hCG levels usually indicate a positive pregnancy test.
For fertilization to take place, the collected egg and sperm are combined in a petri dish and cultured in an embryo incubator. This dish is closely watched to check whether any of the eggs have been fertilized. Once the egg is fertilized, it is referred to as an embryo or a blastocyst on the 5th day of development. Our in-house embryologist carefully nurtures every embryo to the right time, even if it means working outside the standard business operating hours. For instance: If an oocyte is not mature, our laboratory will wait for it to mature and then ICSI it at the right time.
The egg retrieval is a slightly invasive medical procedure that takes about 20 to 30 minutes. You will be given an anesthetic to make you sleep for the duration of the procedure. Using ultrasound technology, your doctor will harvest your eggs transvaginally with a small, hollow needle connected to an ultrasound probe. Once your eggs are collected, your partner’s semen or donor sperm you have pre-selected is used for fertilization. The sperm are washed and prepared, and the top-quality sperm extracted is used to fertilize the eggs.
Your doctor will create a customized medication schedule that contains information about the fertility medications and hormone injections you have to take. Medication and injections are taken to encourage your ovaries to mature a large number of eggs for fertilization. Since women don’t respond to fertility drugs and hormones the same way, personalized protocols are crucial to the IVF cycle success. At Coastal Fertility, we will monitor you closely, letting you understand the changes occurring in your body and keeping track of how your egg follicles are growing.
On-site consultations typicallyinclude a standard fertility evaluation, consisting of a physical examination, complementary follicular ultrasound, and testing to enable your doctor to know your present fertility status and draw up a treatment plan.
This consultation includes a detailed medical evaluation with a doctor. You and your physician will review your health records and have enough time to talk about your goals and get answers to your questions. We recommend that you jot down all your questions before the visit to allow you to make the best use of the time spent with your doctor.
Your Reproductive Endocrinologist will take all factors into consideration and create a comprehensive plan of care, otherwise known as the treatment plan. This plan will include treatment recommendations from the physician and enable your financial coordinator to make a precise quotation once you meet.
