Additional Options For Fresh Egg Donor Cycles

» Zoom Meeting With Egg Donor

Within our fresh egg donor cycles, we offer in-person or Zoom meetings for you to get to know the egg donor before confirming the match, as long as the egg donor agrees to the meeting. To facilitate the meeting, we will collect a non-refundable $500, which will be put toward our cycle fees if you move forward with our agency. This does not apply to frozen donor egg cycles.

» Putting an Egg Donor on Hold

Within our fresh egg donor cycles, we provide the option of putting an egg donor on "hold". If you would like to hold an egg donor for one week, you can do so by paying a $500 non-refundable hold fee. If you elect to move forward with the cycle, the $500 will be put towards your agency fee. This does not apply to frozen donor egg cycles.

How the Payments Work

For our egg donor cycles, you can make arrangements to pay your cycle fee in up to two installment payments. The first payment is a deposit to secure the donor, frozen eggs, or donor embryo. The second payment is the remaining balance which is due once the fresh donor is medically cleared for a fresh cycle, once the eggs are ready to be shipped for a frozen cycle, or once the recipient has been medically cleared and is given a frozen embryo transfer date by the clinic for a donor embryo cycle. 

Financial Resources Available to Help Mitigate Egg Donor Costs 

We partner with CapexMD, a fertility loan company, to help intended parents cover treatment costs. Visit their website to learn more and apply. Please know a transaction fee will be added to your second installment based on the total loan amount. Additionally, we encourage you to view our page on IVF grants to find other opportunities to apply for financial assistance.
