Egg donation is a process where a woman, known as a donor, provides her eggs to help another individual or couple conceive a child. This is often done when the recipient has difficulty producing viable eggs due to age, medical conditions, or other factors. The donor undergoes a medical evaluation and hormonal treatment to stimulate egg production before the eggs are retrieved in a minor surgical procedure. The donated eggs can be fertilized with sperm in a laboratory setting, creating embryos that can be implanted into the recipient's uterus. This process offers hope to many who wish to become parents but face challenges with fertility.
