Egg Donation Pregnancy – Your Path to Parenthood

For individuals or couples struggling with infertility, egg donation, sperm donation, or embryo donation can provide a life-changing opportunity to build a family. At Θήλυ Clinic, we offer guidance and support throughout your fertility journey, helping you make informed decisions about your reproductive options.

Who Needs Donor Eggs, Sperm, or Embryos?

You may consider using donor genetic material if:

✔ You have diminished ovarian reserve due to age-related infertility, ovarian failure, or previous medical treatments (e.g., chemotherapy, radiation, or ovarian surgery).
✔ You experience premature ovarian failure (POF).
✔ Male infertility is a contributing factor, preventing natural conception.
✔ You’ve been advised that using your own eggs or sperm is unlikely to result in a successful pregnancy.
✔ You have a genetic condition that you do not want to pass on to your child.
✔ You are a same-sex couple looking to start a family.
✔ You are single and want to conceive a child.

What Fertility Treatments Can Use Donor Eggs, Sperm, or Embryos?

Donor eggs, sperm, or embryos can be used in a variety of fertility treatments, including:

✔ In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) – When eggs or sperm from a donor are used to create embryos in a laboratory setting before implantation.
✔ Intrauterine Insemination (IUI) – When donor sperm is placed directly into the uterus during ovulation.
✔ Surrogacy – When an embryo is transferred into the womb of a gestational carrier.

How to Find a Donor?

There are two types of egg and sperm donors:

1️  Anonymous Donors

An anonymous donor is someone who voluntarily donates their eggs, sperm, or embryos without a prior connection to the recipient.
✔ At Θήλυ Clinic, we help match you with a suitable anonymous donor through approved donation agencies and fertility clinics.
✔ All donors undergo comprehensive screening to ensure they meet the national regulations and medical guidelinesfor donation.

2️ Known Donors

A known donor is usually a friend or family member who has agreed to provide their eggs or sperm for your treatment.
✔ Just like anonymous donors, they must undergo the same medical screening and testing before being accepted as a donor.
