Common Questions Asked by Egg Donors Before the Application Process

How Many Times Do I Need to Visit Southern California for the Donation?

Local donors will need to commit to two weeks in San Diego for the cycle. If you are an out of town donor, you may be able to complete the first week of the cycle at a local monitoring clinic and travel to San Diego for the last 7-10 days of the cycle. Exact travel protocol will be set by you and your doctor.

What Medications are Required for the Donation Cycle?

To prepare for the egg retrieval, donors will undergo a series of ovulation stimulating injections. “GnRH agonist” or Antagonist is utilized in conjunction with injections to subdue ovarian function. A Lupron injection is used to trigger ovulation and supports the maturation process of the eggs before the egg retrieval. A team member will teach you the injection technique used to self-administer the stimulation medications. Egg donors can also find an instructional video that provides a step-by-step review of injections.
