Suitability of Egg Donors Based on Intellect and Not Beauty

Back

More couples have been using quality egg donors to reduce the delay of their childbirth. Couples, who have passed their childbearing age usually do not produce quality eggs that can be used for successful fertilization. Even if their eggs are used for the fertilization, there are immense chances of the embryos formed out of such fertilization to be short of fertility levels. First-time parents-to-be after the age of 40 are mostly suggested to work hand in hand with an egg donor to get the best result out of their surrogacy program.

As the concept of IVF and surrogacy has become widespread, women no longer tend to hide the fact that their babies have come out the eggs of another person who acted as the donor in their childbirth process. The donors are genetically or physically similar to the couples and have similar intelligence or ability that the intended parents desire to pass on to their children.

Choosing an egg donor is a crucial aspect for intended parents. The decision of using them in the first place also is a major determination for them. They tend to look for the practical traits in the egg donors before finalizing them as they see it as a major factor in enhancing the features of the inherited child. Some parents also count more on repeated egg donors with successful records of fertilization. They should know the fact that an egg donor loses her follicle count after a series of 6 to 7 egg donation. So, going again for them only for the sake of her previous records might not be an intelligent option.

The preference of the intended parents is to go for healthy, good looking and smart egg donors for their case. This has become a common trend in every couple seeking egg donor support in their fertilization process. This is why the online portfolio of the egg donation agencies look more like dating sites these days. Couples emphasize more on the look and appearance of the donor instead of paying attention to the actual factors that determine the success of pregnancy.

The age, physical health and mental balance of an egg donor play important role in determining the health of the egg she is donating. A more healthy and fit person releases the fittest of eggs. Women in their fertile ages usually participate in egg donation. Women with the age of 18 to 38 are considered as the most fertile ones. However, it does not mean that woman over this age group cannot be taken as great egg donors. They still have the potential to deliver quality eggs. In fact, this topic can be debated for an entire day or may be even more. The objective is to find the best suit for an intended couple to satisfy their maternal cravings.

In our other blogs, we have explored the benefits that a couple can get in appointing an egg donor. The current trend of going for an egg donor has made it a priority for some intended parents to build their family with the best available egg. Apart from getting the best of the lot, intended couples also strategize to go for an egg donor to reduce their cost expenditure and time investment. We all are aware of the time that one needs to invest in the process of IVF and surrogacy. Going for an egg donor skillfully cuts the long process short and offers best results.

We have noticed the natural inclination of the couples on the intellect and personality of the egg donor. Some emphasize on her education, choice of career, future plans, interest in athletics, destinations she has traveled, and so on. There is lesser of a desire to know about the best physical match while connecting to the egg donors. Even with anonymous egg donors, the intended parents are found to be forwarding questions related to her interests, beliefs, and goals instead of how her health condition is. This trend can lead to unsuccessful fertilization process, which would ultimately spoil the budget and time of the procedure. This unjustified factors will lead to nowhere but loss of important time, energy and spirit.

Egg donation is quite a common thing today in the field of IVF and surrogacy. Women who decide to use an egg donor sometimes struggle within herself as an unfortunate stigma that stems due to the lack of education and proper understanding of the fertilization process. They pay more interest in knowing the stories of the egg donor and judge their physical attributes. They judge them by their skin color, height, hair texture and body language. On the other hand, it is way more important to look through her medical declarations and screening documents that the egg donation agency submits on her behalf. We totally understand what it means for an intended parent to choose an egg donor, but we rather suggest them to focus on the factors that can have actual consequences in their fertilization process.

Looks and appearances are secondary. It does not have a direct impact on the fertilization process. If truth be told honestly, there are very small impacts of the egg donor’s looks and attributes on the child. The factors that actually matters are the intelligent quotient of the donor, along with her mental stability.

Egg donation is a compulsory part of the IVF procedure of same sex couples, single parents, and LGBT couples. It is actually an inherent part of their process of family building. Nations, where this type of surrogacy is allowed pa a lot of attention in supplying the right egg for every prospective case. Since these couples compulsorily need a donor due to infertility, the fertility agencies working for them takes this as an overwhelming process. This is an emotionally challenging phase for both the intended parent and the fertility clinic to find the most suitable match as an egg donor.

Regardless of the fact that which community the intended parents belong to, they deserve a right donor for them. We educate on the real aspects that need to be taken care of while matching an egg donor with an intended couple. Eye color, race, look or complexion can never be criteria to find the right egg donor for an intended couple. You have to put your focus beyond these aesthetics and pay attention to the medical information presented on the egg donor’s profile.

It is more important to go through the egg donor’s medical history and find out if that could have adverse effects on the fertilization process. The presence of any genetic disease in the fairest egg donor can bring extreme consequences to the fertilization process. Embryos formed after such fertilization may not develop into pregnancies. Also, it should be kept in mind that the full-term delivery of the babies out of such embryos formed of genetically affected eggs is at stake until the time the baby is delivered.

We focus more on the rational factors that actually determine the success of the fertilization process and the features with which the baby will be born. Egg donors in their fertile years with best physical and mental stage are most suitable for going with, rather than the ones with good looks or greater charm.
