Find a Middle Eastern egg donor

Donor Nexus represents egg donors of Persian, Lebanese, Egyptian, Armenian, Turkish, Syrian, Iraqi, and other Middle Eastern heritage, available through both fresh and frozen egg donation programs. Our database lists each donor's heritage, languages spoken, religion where she chooses to share it, and whether she offers non-identified, identified, or Open ID donation, so you can filter for what matters to your family. Registration is free and takes a few minutes.

What Middle Eastern egg donors does Donor Nexus have available?

Our database holds more than 500 donor profiles across all ethnicities and is updated as new donors complete screening. Middle Eastern donors are listed under their specific heritage, which means you can search for a Persian egg donor or a Lebanese egg donor directly rather than browsing a broad category. Availability changes often, so the database is the most accurate place to see who is currently matched, in cycle, or available. Register for free to browse current profiles, or ask your case manager to run the search for you.

How does matching with a Middle Eastern donor work?

Fresh Matching Program

In a fresh cycle you are matched one-to-one with a donor, she travels to your IVF clinic for monitoring and retrieval, and you receive every viable egg from that retrieval. Donor Nexus fresh cycles average 28.9 eggs retrieved and 22.6 mature eggs. Many families choose fresh when they hope to create enough embryos for a future sibling. A fresh cycle usually takes four to six months from match to retrieval, with most of that time spent on donor screening.

Frozen Egg Bank

Frozen Middle Eastern donor eggs are available in cohorts of six and can be shipped to your clinic in the United States or abroad. Eggs are retrieved, vitrified, and stored at a single Southern California site and shipped once, directly to your clinic. Frozen eggs usually reach your clinic within four to six weeks of paperwork and payment, and each cohort comes with the blastocyst guarantee described on the Frozen Egg Bank page.

Where are our Middle Eastern egg donors located?

Our Middle Eastern heritage donors are based both in the United States and abroad. At the time of writing, donors of Middle Eastern background in our program are located in California, Israel, and Brazil, and the location is shown on each profile. Donors in the Fresh Matching Program travel to your clinic wherever they live, with travel included in the program fee, and frozen eggs ship worldwide, so neither your location nor the donor's limits your options.

Frequently Asked Questions

Register for free at Donor Nexus, open the donor database, and set the Ethnicity filter to Middle Eastern. Each profile then lists the donor's maternal heritage and paternal heritage, so you can see whether a donor's background is Persian, Lebanese, Egyptian, Armenian, or another Middle Eastern heritage. The filter works across both the Fresh Matching Program and the Frozen Egg Bank. If you would rather not search yourself, a case manager can review your criteria and send matching profiles.

Availability changes as donors complete screening and matches are made. Register, run a search with the Ethnicity filter set to Middle Eastern, and choose Save this search to be emailed when a new donor who matches is listed. A case manager can also note your criteria and reach out when a matching donor joins the program.

Each donor profile lists maternal and paternal heritage, so when Lebanese, Egyptian, Armenian, Turkish, Syrian, or Iraqi heritage donors are in the program you can see that background on the profile under the Middle Eastern ethnicity filter. Availability varies, so register to view who is currently listed or save a search to be notified.
