Egg Donation

For Recipients

On the day of egg retrieval, the recipient's husband or partner will produce a fresh semen sample. The sperm is then combined with the donor eggs. Intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) may be indicated if the semen analysis is abnormal.  Donor sperm is available to single women, and for women whose husband or partner has no sperm.

Embryo transfer is performed three days after the donor egg retrieval.  Because donated eggs are healthy, and come from young women, we typically transfer two embryos.

At RMA of Philadelphia our pregnancy rate is approximately 50 percent per egg retrieval for our patients undergoing IVF with their own eggs. With egg donation, pregnancy rates approach 70 percent per retrieval.
