Donor Egg IVF

The EmBIO Donor Egg IVF Program offers the largest, immediately available pool of highly-screened egg donors donors in Greece. Offering fertility patients the best choice of thouroghly screenced egg donors, it gives you the chance to start your egg donation treatment today, no matter where your country of residence may be.

For more than fifteen years, EmBIO Fertility Clinic has provided patients from around the world with a highly successful donor egg IVF program that has achieved one of the world's largest number of donor egg pregnancies.

Realizing that you need to get pregnant the soonest possible, EmBIO avails an egg donor list of 120 thoroughly screened egg donors at any time. This means you don't have to wait to be able to select a healthy young egg donor that suits your desired characteristics.

Using EmBIO's donor egg database and, with the help of our donor egg coordinators, our fertility patients make the most successful choice out of our egg donor profiles.

At EmBIO, all egg donors are screened by our own donor egg IVF team - not by outside agencies. Actually, our geneticists, reproductive endocrinologists and nurses get to know the egg donors in person. And this is why you can be sure of the most appropriate recommendation for an egg donor match.

EmBIO Fertility Specialists enhance donor egg IVF success

EmBIO fertility experts such as EmBIO Director Thanos Paraschos, and IVF Lab Director Dina Katrania, have performed some of the world's first genetic treatments. All EmBIO fertility staff are specialized and extraordinarily experienced. Fertility treatments at EmBIO are for that reason endowed with a headstart to success comparing to other fertility units. Furthermore, Greek egg donation legislation makes easier the whole donor egg procedure, to the benefit of all fertility patients, national or international alike.

Every donor is screened by a board certified geneticist. Patients have the opportunity to meet with one of our certified genetics counsellors who will review the patient's family history, the biological father's family history and the donor's history and answer any questions the patient may have about heredity.

Our donor egg IVF coordinator is available to answer your questions on our donor egg IVF program. To reach the donor egg IVF coordinator, please call +30-6973882675 or +30 6973000 435.

Donor Egg IVF is Highly Successful even for Patients Unable to Conceive through Regular IVF Treatment

Donor egg treatment at EmBIO IVF Clinic is successful for the vast majority of women. EmBIO accepts donor egg IVF patients up to age 51.

First time success rates for donor egg IVF exceed 60% by the time all embryos formed from just a single average full donor egg IVF cycle are transferred to the recipient's uterus. Only a minority of patients will ever need retrieval of additional eggs from the donor. If two donor egg IVF cycles are completed with all embryos replaced, about 80% of all patients will have the success they so much desire. Compared to the much more limited chance of success, often 10% or less, for most couples who use in vitro fertilization (IVF) or intra-cytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) with their own eggs under circumstances of relatively advanced reproductive age or impending ovarian failure, donor egg IVF is a much better option.

IVF with Donor Eggs (British newspaper "Observer")

Donor egg IVF is a very easy treatment to undergo, since it is far simpler to do a recipient embryo transfer cycle than a typical full IVF or ICSI cycle using a woman's own eggs. Donor egg IVF cycles normally include a match of one donor to one recipient (sole-match) or sometimes one donor to two recipients (split-match).

The combination of outstanding effectiveness, when donor egg IVF treatment is delivered using high quality donors by our highly experienced team, and the comparative simplicity and comfort of treatment ensures that the donor egg IVF experience is very different for most patients from previous frustrations with IVF or ICSI using their own eggs.

We are fully aware that in choosing an egg donor, you are not merely aiming to achieve a pregnancy, but also making choices about the genetic elements of your future child. When you select the donor egg in our clinic, you can be assured that:

Our donors are rigorously screened by our team experienced in genetic diagnosis and treatment and an entire clinical genetics division. Donors of the highest personal and educational standards are the only ones eligible to enter our screening processes. EmBIO’s certified genetics counsellors are available to meet with you review your family history and the donor's history and answer any questions you may have about heredity. Maximal and extensive information is provided on all donors, and you - not the program - make all the final decisions on the donor to be used for your family. EmBIO’s top professionals will assist you in making the right choice of donor for your family, but the choice is always yours.

Services will be provided promptly and conveniently. For many patients, the time from an initial contact with our clinic to initiation of their donor egg IVF cycle can be a little as one month or less. Patients from many locations discover that they need be in Athens for only 1-2 days in most cases for a full donor egg IVF treatment cycle.

• Intake consultations may be performed at our facilities in Athens or by telephone. Donor selection may also be accomplished in person or by donor selection material to you.
• Our vast experience assures outstanding rates of success for donor cycles, including both fresh and subsequent frozen embryo cycles (if pregnancy is not immediately achieved).
• Confidentiality is absolutely rigorous and never violated under any circumstances.
• Donor egg IVF services may be combined where appropriate with other specialized or unique treatments, to avoid genetic disease.
• Choosing an egg donor program is a decision with life-long implications. That is why so many sophisticated and informed patients place their confidence in the EmBIO Institute's world-famous donor egg IVF program.
• Patients come to our Institute from around the world for these special treatments, and we are experienced in minimizing inconveniences and time away from home for patients from other locations and from abroad.

EmBIO eliminates delays and administrative barriers so that patients can proceed to treatment very quickly. Patients need not attend seminars before entering our program and in many cases they can begin a treatment cycle within weeks, not months. We are generally able to meet the needs of the most discriminating patients immediately, and are often able to provide appropriate donors in highly complex and special situations.
