We will utilize the information that you provide on your health history and application form to tentatively match you with a prospective recipient. Recipients will then be able to review your profile and select you as their donor. Once all of the screening is completed, and you have been accepted into the program, we will enter you into our donor registry if appropriate. We are concerned about many issues including the possibility that you may regret your participation or may have a low chance of being selected by a recipient. This does not mean there is anything wrong with you.
We do not perform Pap smear screening as part of the donor evaluation.Īfter the initial screening, you may be informed that you have not been accepted as an egg donor.
We do however, encourage you to use your current health benefits to make sure you are current with your cervical cancer screening, including having a current Pap smear. You will not have to pay for any of the testing or screening procedures. Additional tests may be required in certain circumstances. The interview and test are not difficult or threatening. For the psychological evaluation, you will meet with a psychologist who will talk with you about why you want to be a donor, and her staff will administer a psychological test called the MMPI. The screening process will involve blood work, an ultrasound, and a psychological evaluation. Once you are given an introduction to the screening and treatment process, you will be entered into the pool of donors and given the opportunity to match to a recipient. You must be flexible with your schedule and the process may require that you miss school or work in order to make it to your required appointments. The whole process will require about 5-6 office visits. Please let us know if at any time you decide that you no longer wish to participate in this program, and your profile will be removed from the registry. It is extremely important that you are willing to complete the process once you start the testing and treatment process. In addition to their financial investment, people become emotionally committed to their treatments. Couples with whom you may be matched will be investing a large amount of money for each cycle.
