Egg donation is used when the patient is unable to produce her own eggs. This type of infertility is often associated with older maternal age, when the ovary’s store of follicles is beginning to run out. The tell-tale signs are irregular – and even absent – periods, which are often a prelude to the menopause. In normally ‘fertile’ women this can happen in their late 30s and early 40s, but there are also unfortunate younger women who are found to have a ‘premature’ menopause. This can happen in women as young as 20 or 30.
At First Step IVF, we arrange for good quality donor eggs, when required. Treatment can take place within three months with a high success rate.
