The process
  1. 01
    Counseling
    We start with a conversation about hopes, values, and the kind of arrangement that fits your family.
  2. 02
    Donor selection
    Choice from carefully screened donor pools, with transparent medical and family histories.
  3. 03

    Independent legal counsel for both sides ensures clarity and protection.
  4. 04
    Cycle & transfer
    A coordinated cycle culminating in embryo transfer to you or your gestational carrier.
What to expect

Donor cycles are highly successful when matched well. The emotional process matters as much as the medical one — we build time and counseling into the journey.

Risks & considerations

Donor conception raises identity, disclosure, and family questions worth thinking through early. We help you find the right counseling and resources to navigate them.

Frequently asked
Frozen or fresh donor eggs?+
Both can work beautifully. Frozen is faster and more flexible; fresh sometimes yields more eggs per cycle.
Can I use a known donor?+
Yes. We support thoughtful known-donor arrangements with proper medical and legal protections.
How are donors screened?+
Comprehensive medical, genetic, infectious-disease, and psychological screening per ASRM guidelines.
