When is the right time to choose egg donation?
February 7, 2025
Choosing to start your family with egg donation is a wonderful step to take in your fertility journey. At Chosen Egg Bank, we understand that it can be hard to know when the right time to make that choice may be, and we’re here to help! Whether you’re struggling with infertility or want to take your time to start your family, egg donation is an excellent option. To help you make your choice, here are a few key factors that may indicate that the time is right!
If your own eggs may not be viable
As women age, the quality and quantity of their eggs naturally decline, making conception more difficult — it’s mother nature! Alternatively, women at any age can have medical conditions that make using their own eggs challenging. If you’ve had a relevant diagnosis or are over 35 years old, using donor eggs may be your best option. By choosing eggs from a young, healthy donor you can increase the chances of a successful pregnancy! Oftentimes, this is an especially helpful option for women who have a low ovarian reserve or poor egg quality.
If you’re facing genetic concerns
For some, genetic conditions can be a serious concern. If you fear passing down a hereditary disease or if a genetic screening reveals potential risks for your child, egg donation can help you eliminate that worry and give your future child the healthiest life possible! At Chosen Egg Bank, we thoroughly and rigorously screen our donors for health conditions. With us, you can move forward with your pregnancy journey without worrying about the future of your little one!
If you’ve been facing challenges on your fertility journey
If you’ve already undergone multiple rounds of IVF with your own eggs but haven’t been able to achieve pregnancy, egg donation could be just what you need! While IVF rates can vary, using donor eggs could significantly increase your chances of having a successful pregnancy. At Chosen Egg Bank, the success rates of egg donation are high, often due to the exceptional health of our egg donors. If your fertility journey has been long and difficult, using donor eggs may be the miracle you’ve been waiting for!
If you’re seeking a faster way to grow your family
If you’re single, in same-sex partnership, or have been struggling with your fertility journey and are ready to start your family now, egg donation could offer you a faster route to starting your family. Frozen donor eggs are always readily available, meaning there is no need to wait for egg retrieval. Ultimately, egg donation can be hugely beneficial for those who have personal circumstances that may leave them wanting to start the process as quickly as possible.
At Chosen Egg Bank, we’re here to help you build the family you’ve been dreaming about!
