How much of my time will it take?
Approximately one month of your time is needed to complete a cycle. This includes lab work, ultrasounds, injections, egg retrieval and post-op visit. Most appointments will take no longer than 30 minutes.
I attend school/work - can I still be a donor?
We can normally accommodate students and working women by arranging our appointments around their schedules.
Will there be any cost to me?
All costs for your evaluation and treatment are covered. There is no out of pocket expense to you.
Is it painful?
The donor program includes venipuncture for lab work and injections of fertility drugs, both not normally considered painful by our donors. The final egg retrieval is performed under sedation.
Can I continue my exercise program?
Yes, but during the last week it is recommended not to do any strenuous activities such as running or high impact aerobics due to stimulation of the ovaries.
Why should I choose your program over another?
Southeastern Fertility Center has been treating infertility patients for many years and offers an experienced staff of 30 employees. Most treatment is provided at one location, removing the need for donors to travel out of state as required in some programs. This means less time and hassle required of you. We work closely with our donors, adapting our program to their schedules. Compensation is equal to other programs in the area.
When will I be compensated?
Donors receive their check in compensation for their time and effort on the day of egg retrieval.
