What is Egg Donation?
Let us first define what is egg donation.
Egg donation is the donation of eggs by a woman who is infertile to enable another person to become pregnant. The eggs are taken out in a painless, harmless procedure and applied through IVF (in-vitro fertilization). The donor’s eggs are permitted to be fertilized with donor or partner sperm and implanted in the surrogate or intended mother.
The entire egg donation process is regulated in Canada to educate, protect, and treat the donor with dignity.
