Egg donation in New York

Hey there people!

I am a young healthy woman and I have heard that you can earn some extra bucks by donating your eggs for fertility treatments? Is this true? How much can I earn? Will it involve a lot of time? will it hurt?

I live in NYC so want to do it here and not have travel expenses.

I know it is a lot of questions but I really don’t know where to start! Thanks in advance.

Hi Sally

Donating your eggs can be a very rewarding thing to do: you would be helping someone in New York with their in vitro fertilization journey, so they can fulfil their dream of becoming a parent!

Also, there can be some financial benefits depending on where you live. However, in order to be accepted as an egg donor you need to meet certain criteria, for example:

be between 18 and 35 years old
be physically and mentally healthy
have normal ovualtory function
not suffer from infections or hereditary diseases
not be adopted

You can find out more on the procedure in this article: Egg donation: requirements, procedure and compensation.

If you meet the criteria, you could receive from $5000 – $10,000.

You would have to undergo ovarian stimulation and then a follicular puncture in order to obtain the eggs, but this procedure is performed under sedation or mild anesthestic so no pain should be felt. The time spent in the process would be the visits to monitor the development of the eggs and then the puncture to obtain them.

I hope this information is useful and good luck!
