After egg donation
Thank you!
You’ve joined an incredible group of young women making a genuine difference in the world, every donation changes the life of someone struggling to conceive.
After your donation, your eggs are matched to a recipient, to help fulfil their dream of starting a family. Any fertilised eggs not used immediately are frozen and can be stored for the recipient to use later.
At the end of your donation cycle, when everything is complete, you’ll 7000 DK in compensation to cover your time and any expenses incurred over the course of the donation process.
Is there anything I need to know for the future?
Women are typically born with around 1-2 million potential eggs and studies show that donating eggs has no impact on your fertility.
You will receive stimulation hormones to mature your eggs and there is no evidence to suggest that your future fertility will be compromised. We use an optimal dose of stimulation to reduce any side-effects and complications.
When you become a donor, if you want to, you are entitled to know about any babies born as a result of your donation. You won’t be given any personal details, but you can be told whether the baby is a boy or a girl, and the year they were born.
The regulations in Copenhagen mean you can choose if the babies born from your donation can (open) or can’t (anonymous) find out more information on you from 18 years of age.
