How much does egg donation cost in the US?

Hello there, we are a gay couple from Utah… We married last year and now we are planning to expand our family 🙂 🙂 We’ve been reading about many different international adoption agencies and how does the process of adoption work, but as far as we’re concerned, it requires too much, which makes it a very slow process… That’s the reason as to why we’ve decided to look at egg donation and surrogacy in the US… For this to be done, we know we need a surrogate woman, in fact we’ve already found one 😀 She’s a very close friend of ours, so we’re over the moon you know… now we are desperate to find an egg donor and then begin with the whole process, but firstly we’d like to better picture what will be the cost of this process, so what does egg donation cost in the US?

Dear paprika222,

Donor-egg IVF in the USA is a required step if you wish to start surrogacy in the US. Its costs may range from $30,000 to 65,000 depending on the fertility clinic you choose to undergo the treatment. Besides, other aspects of the process are included within these costs, as the Preimplantation Genetic Diagnosis (PGD), how many info you want to get about the donor, i.e. if you choose anonymous, semi-known or known donation, etc.

Should you have any further questions, I recommend you to read the following article, where you’ll find detailed info about this issue: Donor-egg IVF cost in the USA.
