Donor eggs are eggs that are provided by a woman who has agreed to donate them for use in assisted reproductive technology. This process is often used by individuals or couples who are unable to conceive using their own eggs due to various reasons, such as age, medical conditions, or genetic concerns. The donated eggs are typically fertilized with sperm in a laboratory setting and then implanted into the recipient's uterus. The use of donor eggs can increase the chances of successful pregnancy, as they often come from younger women who are screened for health and genetic issues. This option is part of a broader category of fertility treatments, which may also include in vitro fertilization (IVF) and egg freezing. Donor egg programs are available through fertility clinics and agencies that specialize in matching donors with recipients.
