For some couples, using embryos donation may be the best option for achieving parenthood. This approach can be an option when obtaining genetic material from both partners is not possible, or for single women who wish to have a child. Donor embryos provide hope and the potential for a successful pregnancy when other methods may not be feasible.
When Embryos Donation May Be Recommended
Lack of Partners’ Own Eggs or Sperm
When one or both partners are unable to provide their own genetic material due to factors such as advanced age, certain medical conditions, or previous surgical procedures that have affected fertility, donor embryos can be a suitable option.
Increased Risk of Inherited Diseases
In cases where there is a significant risk of passing on serious genetic disorders to a child, using donor embryos can help minimize it by utilizing eggs and sperm from carefully screened donors.
Poor Embryo Quality in Multiple ART Attempts
Despite multiple attempts at ART programs, the resulting embryos may sometimes be of poor quality and fail to result in a successful pregnancy. In such situations, donor embryos may offer a better chance of achieving parenthood.
Embryos Donation Sources
Donor embryos can be created by fertilization of donor eggs with donor sperm or through donation from patients at the clinic who have surplus embryos after completing their own IVF treatment. All donors undergo special screening to ensure quality and safety standards are met.
SILK Medical provides detailed information about the donors whose genetic material was used in the fertilization process, giving patients peace of mind and confidence in their decision. Additionally, PGT analysis can be performed to further ensure embryos viability.
Embryo Transfer Process
Donor embryo transfers are carried out using a cryo protocol, which involves freezing the embryos before the transfer. This approach allows for better coordination and timing of the transfer process, optimizing the chances of a successful implantation and pregnancy.
SILK Medical’s fertility specialists work closely with each patient to determine the most suitable course of action, either in a natural cycle or using hormone replacement therapy, based on their unique needs and circumstances. This personalized approach gives every patient the best possible care and support throughout the procedure.
Taking the Next Step with Embryos Donation
Couples who believe donor embryos may be the right path for them should consider scheduling a consultation with a fertility specialist at SILK Medical. During the appointment, the unique situation will be discussed, and an informed decision can be made about the fertility treatment.
