The mainstream media loves egg donor stories, but typically, they focus on the extremes. There are the extremely positive stories, like celebrity stories or the very rich. Or they focus on egg donors who are a sister, cousin, or friend of the recipient, as opposed to those who choose an egg donor they never knew before.But these stories represent the extremes. The vast majority of egg donors and egg donor recipients have less dramatic - but just as important - stories to tell. It's important that their stories are also heard, by those considering egg donation, and by the general public.
Have you used IVF with an egg donor? Have you become an egg donor yourself? Please share your story with us. Your story will then appear on our site, so others can read about the less dramatized side of egg donation. Real stories, real people, real families.
And to be clear - I want to hear your story whether you had a good or bad experience, whether you'd do it again or never recommend it.
Share your story here:
While we're talking about egg donation, I think this is a good time to mention a wonderful website that supports women who choose to use an egg donor: Parents Via Egg Donation This site offers tons of information on the egg donation process, as well as forums where you can talk to women who are also considering or already using an egg donor.
Know of another good support site for women using an egg donor, or women considering becoming an egg donor? Feel free to leave a comment with your suggestion! (Just be sure it's not an advertisement for a particular clinic or agency. Those will be deleted.)
PS. Don't forget to share your story of becoming an egg donor or using IVF with an egg donor!
