*Please note – Frozen Eggs available from egg donor 1019 & 1453 only*
We pioneered egg donation agencies and founded our company nearly 20 years ago. As a leading force in egg donation in the United States we are proud to be a groundbreaker in developing The Donor Egg Bank. For years we have been waiting for the technology of egg freezing to reach a rate of success comparable to that of fresh egg donor cycles. Recent cutting edge technology in the freezing process, a slow process called “vitrification” has allowed for a higher success rate in the thawing and ongoing pregnancy rate from frozen eggs.
The advantages for Intended Parents are tremendous:
- The cost for a thawed egg cycle is less than half of the cost
Frozen Egg Donor Cycle
5 mature eggs = $15,000 plus transfer feesFresh Egg Donor Cycle
Unknown quantity of eggs =
$33,000 - $50,000 - There is one clear cost which eliminates possible extra costs with traditional egg donation such as extra medications, blood tests, travel, monitoring, lost wages.
- Recipient couples are required to pay for any uterine analysis or FDA testing for themselves, as well as the costs of the embryo transfer and their own medication.
- There is no financial risk such as:
- The egg donor not passing her screening
- The egg donor having a recessive genetic disorder
- False positive lab tests
- Cysts, infections, and other possible medical delays
- The egg donor not responding
- The egg donor cycle cancelled for too much response or single dominant follicle
- Additional follow up ultrasounds and medications for the donor
- The donor making a mistake in the dosage
- There is no emotional risk such as:
- The egg donor changing her mind
- The egg donor’s job or boyfriend preventing the cycle
- Family Emergency
- Inadvertent pregnancy of the egg donor
- The stress factor is much lower and may affect pregnancy rate
- Recipients are now in control of the cycle’s timing. There is no synchronization.
- All egg donors are Premier donors from The Egg Donor Program with proven results from normal egg donor cycles.
- The quality of the characteristics of the donors chosen to participate in The Donor Egg Bank is superior. Recipients would not be able to cycle with these women as they are in great demand and can only do a few cycles. And their fee and or / travel fees might make the cost for a fresh cycle too high for most Intended Parents. But with this program, two or three recipients can afford to obtain eggs from the donor of their choice.
- There is no wait. Typically a fresh donor cycle takes 3-4 months, not including the wait time if she is in cycle with someone else. There cycles can be completed very rapidly – less than 2 months
- Additional embryos created from the thaw which are not transferred can be frozen
- You may reserve eggs from the same donor for future use.
- You do not have to deal with the ethical issue of disposing of many unused frozen embryos.

Donor Egg Bank Recipient Letters
September 2011
"We're obviously very excited! I just wanted to let you know how great it has been to work with you through this. You were far and away the best person we've dealt with. Thanks for the patience, the reasonableness and in the end the kindness. You reduced a great deal of stress for me as we went through this."

"Here I am the lucky recipient of the frozen eggs you donated to us more than a year ago. We were able to have our first child, a girl, in large part to you and the doctor.. My wife and I were thinking that a few years down the road we may explore the egg donor scenario again, if we choose to have a second child. We know that obtaining frozen eggs is much more cost effective than going the traditional route. Plus, we know firsthand that it can work!"
