Egg Donation Process
Registration
The first step is to complete an application, which you can request by filling up the below form, send us an email at eggdonation@amcanfertility.com, or call (949)886-5206. Once your application is accepted, our donor specialist will contact you to walk you through the donating process.
Medical Screening
Once you're accepted by AmCan Egg Bank or selected by the recipients, you will undergo a medical screening. Our team will arrange genetic testing, bloodwork, ultrasounds, and psychological evaluations.
Legal Process
After you pass all prescreening and is medically approved, we will assist both parties in starting the legal process. The legal part involves a contract between recipients and donor.
Medication and Egg Retrieval
The IVF clinic will provide you with a schedule and medication protocol. A nurse coordinator will instruct you on how to administer medications. At the end of two weeks, we will perform the egg retrieval.
