What Is
the Criterion to be an Egg Donor to Create a Test-tube
Baby?
|

Dear Dr. Jason:
May I know what is the requirement as a egg donor for
test tube baby? Can a virgin be a egg donor? Does age
make a difference? Anntz

Dear Anntz:
Whether you're a virgin or not, you
ovulate. This means you have the ability to donate eggs no
matter what. Whether this is your first egg or your last, the
only thing that changes over time may be some of the
chromosomal damage done to the aging egg, however there are
screening tools that allow for doctors and geneticists to
detect these problems before they are fertilized.

What are the factors that determine the quality of the
donor eggs?

The same goes for the male sperm, which can
age and have damage just the way an egg can.
As long as your are ovulating, nothing
should deter your ability to donate your eggs.
Good Luck,
Dr. Jason
