Are you looking for a path to parenthood, but your own eggs have not brought the desired result? IVF with donor eggs may be an option worth considering — especially if you have already exhausted other treatment possibilities and still dream of having a child. In this article, you’ll learn how this treatment works, who it is suitable for, what conditions apply, and how Prague Fertility Centre can help you achieve your dream of starting a family.
What Is IVF with Donor Eggs and Who Can Benefit from It?
IVF with donor eggs is an assisted reproduction treatment in which eggs from an anonymous and thoroughly screened donor are fertilized with sperm from your partner or a sperm donor.
This treatment is particularly suitable for women who have experienced repeated unsuccessful IVF cycles using their own eggs, have a diminished ovarian reserve or poor egg quality, or have ovarian dysfunction or genetic conditions that prevent the use of healthy eggs of their own.
Thanks to our in-house database of anonymous egg donors and personalized approach, treatment can begin almost immediately. Success rates per cycle are significantly higher compared to conventional IVF using a patient’s own eggs.
How Does the Treatment Work Step by Step?
Every treatment plan begins with a free consultation with a fertility specialist and your personal coordinator. During this meeting, your medical and reproductive history will be reviewed, and an individualized treatment strategy will be created.
The next step is selecting a suitable donor from the database based on your biological preferences, such as hair color, eye color, or blood type. All donors undergo comprehensive medical and genetic screening.
Your cycle is then synchronized with the donor’s cycle, and the necessary hormonal preparation begins. This is followed by egg retrieval from the donor and fertilization using a method such as ICSI. After embryo cultivation, the embryo transfer takes place, followed by a waiting period before the pregnancy test.
Throughout the entire process, you will receive dedicated support and personalized care to ensure you feel informed, confident, and supported every step of the way.
Treatment Requirements and Success Rates
Success rates with donor eggs are generally higher than with standard IVF using a patient’s own eggs. This is because the treatment uses healthy, carefully screened eggs from young donors, increasing the chances of successful fertilization and a healthy pregnancy.
Thanks to advanced laboratory techniques, experienced embryologists, and state-of-the-art technology, Prague Fertility Centre achieves a cumulative success rate of up to 90% of couples within four treatment cycles.
Results vary depending on the patient’s age and other individual factors, but the availability of donors and personalized treatment planning can significantly improve the likelihood of success.
What Should You Know Before Starting Treatment?
In the Czech Republic, IVF with donor eggs is legally available to women who are part of a heterosexual couple and undergo treatment together with their partner. Unfortunately, single women are currently not eligible for this treatment under Czech legislation.
The Czech law also sets an upper age limit for fertility treatment: IVF can be performed up to a woman’s 49th birthday.
The treatment costs include donor selection, medical screening, and hormonal preparation of the donor, all of which are reflected in the overall treatment price. However, the clinic guarantees two embryo transfers within this treatment package, increasing the chances of a successful outcome.
