Behind every cycle is a couple who wanted a baby, and a donor who helped make it possible. These are their words. If you are weighing donor egg IVF, reading how it went for people in your situation can make the decision feel less daunting.
How well does donor egg IVF work?
At our clinic, donor egg IVF gives about a 46% chance of pregnancy per cycle. That is among the higher figures in India, and there is a clear reason for it. Egg quality is the single biggest factor in whether IVF works, and donor eggs come from young, healthy women who have passed a full medical and genetic screen. This is why many couples who did not succeed with their own eggs go on to have a baby with donor eggs.
A good chance on each attempt also means you are not pinning everything on one cycle. If the first transfer does not work, your odds build with a second or third attempt, and you can plan calmly rather than fear a single result. You can see how the numbers, steps and money fit together on our cost, success rate and timeline page.
Stories from our couples and donors
Common questions about donor egg IVF success
What is the success rate of donor egg IVF in India?
At our clinic it is about 46% per cycle. Donor egg cycles tend to have higher success than treatment with a woman’s own eggs, because the eggs come from young, screened donors.
Why is donor egg IVF more successful?
Egg quality falls with age and is the main reason IVF fails. Using eggs from a young, fertile, medically screened donor removes that limit, so the embryo has a strong start.
How many cycles will I need?
Many couples conceive on the first attempt. If a cycle does not work, your chances improve over a second or third try, and we plan each step with you.
