Egg donation IVF is an extremely successful, cost effective and popular treatment for achieving pregnancy.
We adhere to highest standards of ICMR guidelines during selection of egg donors. They are repeatedly screening for HIV, Hepatitis B, C and other genetic tests .

Donors are selected in such a way that they match the patients heights, physical characteristics , skin color etc.
Please note that the Indian law does not permit revealing identity or showing photographs of donor.

Steps Of Egg Donation IVF

- Initial Workup If not done previously, the couple is advised to undergo certain blood tests to make sure that they can go ahead with the treatment.
- Hormonal Therapy - Patient is given hormonal tablets for the development of endometrial cavity.
- Serial Trans Vaginal Scan - Serial Ultrasounds are performed to see for the endometrial lining. Once it is 8 – 10mm embargo transfer is done.
- Blastocyst Transfer Instead of day2 or day 3 we aim at the transfer of day5 embryo formation known as Blastocyst. This yields in better success rates.
