The donor selection process happens in two simple steps. In step 1, the IVF centers check that the guidelines are set by government regulations to ensure safety and reliability, like her age should be between 21 and 35 years old, and she must have at least one child of her own. In step 2, the donor goes through a complete health check-up, including a pelvic examination, to make sure she’s in good health. She also undergoes medical and psychological tests, genetic screening, and matching based on her physical features and the recipient’s preferences.
Yes, the IVF center thoroughly checks for any genetic abnormalities as per the request of the recipient to identify potential carriers of inherited diseases and rule out chromosomal abnormalities to ensure the health of the donor eggs and the potential baby. They also perform detailed blood tests of all the egg donors to check hormone levels, blood count, sugar, thyroid function, and screen for infections like HIV, Hepatitis B & C, and syphilis.
The success rate of egg donor IVF treatment is generally high, around 70% to 90% per embryo transfer.

A doctor will recommend egg donor IVF treatment when a woman's own eggs are not viable, such as in cases of poor egg quality, advanced age, early menopause, premature ovarian failure, or when there is a risk of passing on a genetic disorder. Donor egg treatment is also suggested after repeated IVF failures due to poor embryo quality, or for cancer survivors who have lost ovarian function due to treatment.
As per the ART law of India, any woman between the ages of 21 and 35 years with proven fertility can become an egg donor. She has to provide all the legal consents and documentation to become a donor. The ART law also limits the number of times a woman can donate her eggs.
A baby conceived by egg donor IVF treatment will not share your DNA, so the chances of the baby’s physical resemblance to you are almost zero, but the baby can definitely have the physical traits of your partner if his sperm are used for the fertilization. You can request your IVF doctor to search for a donor who has some similar or matching physical characteristics to you. While the genetic resemblance comes from the egg donor, your role as the nurturing mother means you have a significant impact on the baby's development and the potential for a perceived resemblance over time.
The main difference is the source of the egg: normal IVF uses the intended mother's eggs, while donor egg IVF uses eggs from a female donor. It means that the baby conceived from donor eggs will not be genetically identical to the intended mother. Both procedures involve the fertilisation of the eggs in the lab with the intended father’s sperm and transferring the embryos into the intended mother’s uterus to implant and grow.
As per the ART law, ART banks can select sperm donors and store the donated sperm. ART banks first screen the donors of all viral marker tests, like HIV, HCV, etc. and do semen analysis of each person who comes to donate sperm. If everything is normal, then the sperm sample is stored. IVF centres source the donor sperm from ART banks as per the requirements by sharing the recipient’s blood groups, basic physical traits requirements, etc. Femcare Fertility has its own ART bank by the Dume ART Bank in Kolkata, and we take donations of sperm after carefully checking all the necessary requirements so that the recipient couple feel comfortable receiving the donor sperm. If you are looking for donor sperm treatment, visit Femcare Fertility to get the best treatment.

In both treatments, the eggs are fertilised in the lab, and the embryos are then transferred into the intended mother’s uterus.
Any man between the ages of 21 and 55 can visit the ART bank for sperm donation.

If all the tests are normal, then the donor’s sperm sample is collected and stored.
