Pregnancy with donated embryo is a method in which the male and female sex cells of the donor (who are a religious and legal couple) form an embryo in a laboratory environment, which is transferred to the uterus of the woman applying for a child using medical facilities. Due to religious issues, it is not allowed to use donated sperm in infertility clinics in the country. Therefore, the next therapeutic solution is to use a donated embryo.
Pregnancy with donated embryo can be done in two ways:
The first method is to use frozen and ready embryos in embryo storage centers.
The second method is to use embryos prepared from a healthy couple.
Couples who are infertile for various reasons and have completed IVF procedures and have children donate the remaining embryos to infertile couples. If people with azoospermia problems want to use frozen embryos, the recipient’s uterus will be prepared by arranging with the embryology laboratory. After the preparation of the endometrium, the embryo is transferred into the uterus. The time required for this process is about three weeks.
Voluntary couples who are legally married can donate one or more embryos to specialized infertility treatment centers voluntarily and free of charge.
Basically, pregnancy with donated embryos is a method for women who cannot use their own eggs for pregnancy. In this method, an embryo consisting of donor egg and sperm is transferred to the recipient woman’s uterus. The steps in this process include selecting the embryo, preparing the uterus with hormones to accept the embryo, and then transferring the embryo to the uterus. After the transfer, the pregnancy continues normally and the woman needs medical care like any other pregnancy.
Main steps:
Pregnancy with donated embryo gives women who cannot use their own eggs due to infertility problems or genetic diseases a chance to become mothers.
