Understanding the Donor Program


The Donor Program at Shishu IVF Fertility Centre offers a vital solution for couples and individuals facing infertility challenges. This program includes egg, sperm, and embryo donation, providing hope and the possibility of parenthood to those who require assistance. At Shishu IVF Fertility Centre, we are committed to providing comprehensive information about our donor program, its processes, and how it can help you achieve your dream of starting a family.

The Donor Program Process

1. Consultation and Evaluation:

The process begins with a thorough consultation and evaluation to understand your specific needs and medical history. At Shishu IVF Fertility Centre, our specialists will guide you through the available options and help you make an informed decision. We are committed to providing personalized care every step of the way

2. Medical and Psychological Screening:

Both donors and recipients undergo extensive medical and psychological screening to ensure compatibility and reduce the risk of complications. This includes blood tests, genetic screening, and psychological assessments.

3. Legal and Ethical Considerations:

We ensure that all legal and ethical guidelines are strictly followed. This includes informed consent, confidentiality, and adherence to local regulations regarding donor anonymity and rights.

4. Ovarian Stimulation and Egg Retrieval (for Egg Donation):

The donor undergoes ovarian stimulation with hormonal medications to produce multiple eggs. Once the eggs have matured, they are retrieved through a minor surgical procedure performed under ultrasound guidance.

5. Sperm Collection (for Sperm Donation):

The donor provides a semen sample, which is processed and prepared for use in fertilization.

6. Fertilization and Embryo Culture (for Embryo Donation):

The donated eggs and sperm are combined in a laboratory dish to facilitate fertilization. The resulting embryos are cultured for several days, and the most viable embryos are selected for transfer or freezing.

7. Embryo Transfer:

The selected embryos are transferred into the recipient’s uterus using a thin catheter. This procedure is usually painless and does not require anesthesia.

8. Luteal Phase Support and Pregnancy Test:

Hormonal medications are given to support the uterine lining and enhance the chances of successful implantation and pregnancy. About two weeks after the embryo transfer, a blood test is conducted to determine if pregnancy has been achieved.

Indications for the Donor Program

The Donor Program is recommended for various infertility issues, including:

  • Ovarian Failure: Women with premature ovarian failure or diminished ovarian reserve.
  • Genetic Disorders: Couples at risk of passing on genetic conditions may opt for donor eggs, sperm, or embryos.
  • Male Factor Infertility: Severe male factor infertility where sperm quality or quantity is insufficient.
  • Repeated IVF Failures: Couples who have experienced multiple unsuccessful IVF cycles.
  • Same-Sex Couples and Single Parents: Individuals and couples needing donor gametes to build their families

Success Rates and Factors

The success rates of the Donor Program vary depending on several factors, including:

  • Age of the Donor: Younger donors typically provide higher quality eggs and sperm.
  • Recipient’s Health: The overall health and reproductive condition of the recipient play a significant role
  • Lifestyle: Maintaining a healthy lifestyle, including proper diet and avoiding smoking and excessive alcohol, can improve outcomes.
