Embryo-Donation

At Gem Hospital & IVF Centre, we understand that the journey to parenthood can be challenging, especially for those who are unable to conceive using their own eggs or sperm. Embryo donation offers a life-changing opportunity for couples and individuals struggling with infertility. Our experienced team provides compassionate care and personalized guidance to help you achieve your dream of having a family through embryo donation.

What is Embryo Donation?

Embryo donation is a fertility treatment in which unused embryos, created during IVF cycles by another couple or individual, are donated to another woman who is unable to conceive with her own eggs or partner’s sperm. The donated embryos are implanted into the recipient’s uterus through an embryo transfer, with the hope that one will successfully implant and result in pregnancy.

Who Can Benefit from Embryo Donation?

Embryo donation can be an ideal solution for several individuals and couples, including:

• Couples Who Cannot Produce Viable Eggs or Sperm: For individuals with genetic disorders, advanced age, or medical conditions that affect fertility, embryo donation allows them to pursue parenthood without using their own eggs or sperm.
• Women with Repeated IVF Failures: Those who have faced repeated IVF cycle failures due to poor egg quality or other fertility issues can find success with embryo donation.
• Same-Sex Couples and Single Individuals: For same-sex couples and single women, embryo donation offers the opportunity to have a child when using their own eggs may not be an option.
• Women with Uterine or Reproductive Conditions: If a woman has a medical condition that affects her ability to carry a pregnancy, embryo donation can provide a chance to have a biological child.

The Embryo Donation Process

1. Donor Matching
   At Gem Hospital & IVF Centre, we carefully match embryo donors with recipients based on factors such as physical characteristics, medical history, and genetic screening. Donors are thoroughly screened for genetic disorders, infectious diseases, and overall health to ensure that the embryos are of the highest quality.
2. Embryo Thawing and Transfer
   Once the embryos are selected and thawed, they are evaluated for their quality and readiness for transfer. The embryos are then transferred into the recipient’s uterus in a simple and non-invasive procedure. The number of embryos transferred depends on the recipient’s medical condition and preferences.
3. Pregnancy Monitoring
   After the embryo transfer, the recipient will undergo regular monitoring, including blood tests and ultrasounds, to check for signs of pregnancy. Pregnancy is typically confirmed about 10-14 days after the transfer.
4. Post-Transfer Care
   After a successful pregnancy test, the recipient will continue to receive care to ensure a healthy pregnancy, including hormone therapy and regular check-ups.

Advantages of Embryo Donation

• Higher Success Rates: Embryo donation can offer higher success rates than traditional IVF, especially for women who have had multiple failed IVF cycles or have poor-quality eggs.
• Access to Healthy, Genetically Tested Embryos: Embryo donors undergo rigorous screening for genetic diseases, ensuring that the embryos are healthy and have the best chance of a successful pregnancy.
• Affordable Option: Compared to other fertility treatments, embryo donation can be a more cost-effective solution for couples who may not have success with traditional IVF.
• Building a Family: Embryo donation provides a meaningful path to parenthood for those who have struggled with infertility or other fertility challenges.
