Who needs donor eggs?
The sole objective of donor eggs is to help individuals or couples with the opportunity to become parents.
Every individual or couple has their own motives and circumstances due to which they choose to use donor eggs. Some of these may include:
- Premature menopause
- Unable to use their own eggs due to genetic causes
- repeatedly unsuccessful using an IVF program
- Born without ovaries
- Undertaken treatment for cancer
- Donated eggs can also be used in surrogacy
