What is Egg Donation?

Egg Donation

Egg donation is a generous act where a female donor helps to fulfill another woman's desire of becoming a mother.

All women are born with a certain number of eggs in their ovaries, of which only 0.1% are used during their fertile life.

Through donation, some of the donor's eggs that would otherwise be naturally lost in each ovarian cycle are utilized.

Who Can Benefit from Egg Donation?

Women who cannot achieve pregnancy naturally due to various factors:

  • Ovarian problems: either because the woman has lost her ovaries, they have aged prematurely, or the oocytes they produce do not have the necessary quality.
  • Women who are carriers of chromosomal abnormalities.
  • Cases where there has been an absence of ovarian stimulation or repeated implantation failures in previous in vitro fertilization (IVF) cycles.

Egg donation is regulated by Spanish Law 9/2014 on Assisted Human Reproduction techniques, which establishes that gamete donation must be anonymous, voluntary, and altruistic.

The donation is anonymous, and under no circumstances will the recipient patient be able to know the identity of the donor and vice versa. This information is confidentially safeguarded by the clinic itself.
