Donor IVF
Overview
Donor IVF is a fertility treatment that involves using eggs or sperm from a donor to help individuals or couples conceive. It is an effective solution for those facing infertility challenges due to genetic issues, poor egg or sperm quality, or other medical conditions. At Yellow IVF, we aim to make parenthood dreams a reality by offering compassionate care and advanced reproductive technologies.
Donor IVF is recommended in the following cases:
- Women with diminished ovarian reserve or premature ovarian failure.
- Men with severe sperm abnormalities or azoospermia (absence of sperm).
- Couples who are at the risk of passing genetic disorders to their child.
- Women who have undergone treatments like chemotherapy that affect egg quality.
- LGBTQ+ couples or single parents seeking family-building options.

You may be an ideal candidate for Donor IVF if:
- You have a medical condition affecting egg or sperm quality.

2. Donor Selection:
- Matching with an egg or sperm donor based on physical, genetic, and personal preferences.
- Thorough screening of the donor for health, genetic, and infectious conditions.
3. Hormonal Preparation:
- Synchronization of the recipient’s menstrual cycle with the donor’s cycle (for egg donors).
- Endometrial preparation to ensure the uterus is ready for embryo implantation.
4. Lifestyle Adjustments:
- Adopting a healthy diet and avoiding smoking, alcohol, and stress for optimal results.
Procedure
- Donor Egg or Sperm Collection:
- Egg donors undergo ovarian stimulation and retrieval under medical supervision.
- Sperm donors provide sperm samples through non-invasive methods.
2. Fertilization:
- The donor egg is fertilized with sperm (partner’s or donor’s) using in vitro fertilization (IVF).
3. Embryo Transfer:
- The fertilized embryo is transferred to the recipient’s uterus using a minimally invasive procedure.
4. Post-Transfer Monitoring:
- Regular follow-ups and hormonal support to enhance embryo implantation chances.
After the procedure
Post-procedure care is critical for successful outcomes:
- Avoid strenuous activities for a few days.
- Continue prescribed medications to support the pregnancy.
- Regular blood tests and ultrasounds to monitor early pregnancy progress.
Results
Donor IVF offers high success rates, particularly when using healthy, young donors. Most patients experience positive outcomes, with many achieving pregnancy in the first few cycles. However, results vary depending on individual factors such as age, health, and uterine condition.
Potential Risks
While Donor IVF is generally safe, some potential risks include:
- Side effects of hormonal medications, such as bloating or mild discomfort.
- Multiple pregnancies (twins or triplets) if multiple embryos are transferred.
- Emotional challenges associated with using a donor.
- Rare cases of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) in donors.
Cost
The cost of Donor IVF varies depending on factors such as:
- Donor selection fees and medical screenings.
- Hormonal medications for the donor and recipient.
- IVF lab procedures and embryo freezing (if required).
Yellow IVF provides transparent and flexible pricing to ensure accessibility and affordability for all patients.
