Faq for Intended Parents
When you begin this trip, there are no insignificant questions.
We’re here to make sure you’re well-informed about the procedure.
How long does take donor oocytes to be shipping when you choose a donor
If you choose Premium Banked eggs (marked with a snowflake icon), you may expect delivery in 3 weeks. If you choose a donor who does not have stored eggs, the retrieval and transportation process could take anywhere from 2-4 months. We advise waiting until the eggs have arrived at your clinic before arranging operations.
Where do you go to find egg donors?
Egg Donor Europe accepts Donors from all around the world
We care about blood type; can we find out what the donor’s blood type is?
The donor full profile gives Donors blood type. You must first register in order to access the donor’s complete profile.
More FAQ for Intended Parents
How do I pick a donor?
The final decision is entirely up to you. Intended Parents make their decision based on a variety of personal factors, but the majority search for a donor who is a good physical fit for your entire family profile. We can assist you in narrowing down your options. If you require any additional assistance, please contact us at info@eggdonoreurope.com.
How do you make sure the donors aren’t mixed up?
Our lab follows very rigorous procedures and keeps a close eye on everything to ensure that all donor eggs tagging properly and that the right donor eggs travel to the right Intended Parents. We have a thorough ID verification mechanism in place to ensure that the eggs you ordered are the ones you get.
We conduct several internal audits and meet all of the requirements set forth by a variety of national and international regulatory bodies.
What qualifies a mature egg for vitrification as “excellent quality”?
There is only one polar body in a developed egg. We don’t freeze eggs that have several polar bodies, big vacuoles, or are misshapen. When we retrieve mature eggs or eggs that are larger than a regular egg we don’t freeze them.
Is the quality of frozen eggs comparable to the quality of fresh eggs?
Fresh and frozen egg pregnancy rates are nearly the same. Please see our full fresh versus frozen egg comparison here for more details.
Do you provide a money-back guarantee?
Depending on your purchase selections, Egg Donor Europe offers a couple of assurances. You can see the whole list of assurances.
What are my odds of becoming pregnant with frozen eggs in general?
Our outcome measurements represent the wide range of doctors, scientists, lab technicians, and practising skills seen in all IVF clinics. When we look at all of the clinics that use our eggs, we find that the average pregnancy rate from the initial transfer of embryo(s) from the first batch of eggs is around 50%. We feel this indicates a true chance of success, taking into account all of the components that go into a cycle as well as circumstances outside Egg Donor Europe’s control after they leave our laboratory.
How can I interpret the differences in pregnancy rates reported by different egg banks?
Reporting pregnancy rates for Egg Donor Europe for each egg thawing cycle. For example, if Patient A does one thawing cycle and becomes pregnant, and Patient B undergoes one thawing cycle but does not become pregnant, Egg Donor Europe will record a 50% pregnancy rate for these two cycles.
Egg Donor Europe would publish the results of these three egg-thawing cycles as a 67 percent pregnancy rate if Patient B got a second set of eggs from Egg Donor Europe and became pregnant with that set of eggs (two of three). Other egg banks, on the other hand, frequently provide pregnancy rates on a per-patient basis (and not a per-cycle basis). Other egg banks may report a 100% pregnancy rate under such a computation using the example above (two of two patients became pregnant when three cycles took place).
A cumulative pregnancy rate is a term used to describe this type of calculation. When comparing statistics from multiple egg banks, make sure the calculations are done the same way each time. This ensures that the actual comparisons are accurate and reflect the genuine chances of pregnancy in each scenario.

Will the frozen eggs come at an additional expense to me?
While there are no additional fees. You are responsible for the cost of the donor eggs as well as shipment. Remember to factor in the costs of your doctor’s monitoring, medicines, egg thawing, fertilization, embryo transfer, and any additional treatments your doctor suggests.
