Quality & Safety
The safety and well-being of our patients are paramount.
Each donor (and their partner, if applicable) undertakes comprehensive testing for the following communicable diseases before donations begin. In conjunction with basic wellness tests and blood grouping, at Eeve Donor Bank, donors undergo extensive genetic screening tests and infection disease screenings including HIV, Hepatitis B and C, among others.
Following the conclusion of the above tests, medical consultation and psychological counselling, donation can commence.
You can learn more about the process a donor undergoes to donate eggs on our Donation Steps web page.
Things to consider
- Egg availability is subject to demand. Number of eggs available from an individual donor cycle, number of reservations for a particular donor and donor withdrawal from the program can all effect donor egg availability.
