    Whether you’re an egg donor now, if you’re considering it, or you know someone that is - I’m glad you’re here. Young women are donating eggs at the time they are most fertile, often times not realizing the implications of what that means.
    I’ve had patients come to me in their 40s without enough healthy eggs of their own to conceive. When they share with me that they themselves donated their young and healthy eggs in their 20s or 30s, but that none are available for them, I feel frustrated and sad for them. Frustrated enough that I’m doing something about it.
    Freeze & Share is a program that helps young egg donors save some eggs for themselves should they need them, while helping another family conceive when they can’t on their own. Suffice to say, I don’t want anyone to look back at their egg donation and wish they’d known more. Here is your chance - I want to give you all the information I have so that you’re equipped with the knowledge to make the best decision for your personal situation. Let’s start with the basics.

    Omg thank you so much for making this video. this is so informative but barely got 1k view. Looks like it’s not popular as sperm donor.
    Dr.Aimee, how long do you have to wait until you can donate your eggs again? Is it like every month, every year or how does it work? Thank you.

    Hi, I'm interest in becoming an egg donor and I was wondering if you were aware of any long term affects such as cancer or anything else that I should be aware of? thank you

      I was going through similar situation and tried to find scientific research on the long term effects. I couldn’t find a single research. However I came across multiple reports of aggressive cancer and endometriosis. It’s a given that egg donors are health because they wouldn’t qualify if they had family history of cancer or any other case. However the reports I saw are healthy people dying from cancer I’m their 20’s.
      Since it’s a highly lucrative business which is also growing very fast with the increased infertility rate. If they do an actual longterm research they know they will be few to none donors. However they don’t want to scare off the donors and lose money.
      They don’t even follow up with donors and collect data.

    Hi, I'm 20 and I live in Michigan, I had a early miscarriage before, so I understand the feelings someone may have struggling with having children and would love to help someone create the family they deserve, what would be the first steps to this, and would this effect my chance of having my own children in the future. Do I need to go to a specific doctor, or will me normal ob work for the tests?

    Is it possible to go through it without the shots? Because I produce a lot of eggs naturally, and I have a natural alternative to help produce extra eggs and help with the bloating and pain.

    so if someone already has to be cautious with which kinds of hormonal birth control they're able to take safely (because of migraines with aura and increased stroke risk), would this person not be a great candidate for donating eggs because of the hormones?

    Hello Dr. Aimee, thank you so much for the video! You’ve got such a wonderful spirit about you.
    I’ve been interested in egg donation for some time. I’m 28 and live in Arizona.
    I do not know my levels, should I go to my physician to find those out before I come to see you? May I make an appointment for sometime this year?
    Thank you for all you do, God bless you! ❤️

    Hi Doctor Aimee. I watch you all the time and i just think you are awesome. Too bad im in Australia, would have love to be your patient.
    I have an odd question. I recently had 6x day 5 embryo frozen and 1x freshly transferred. Do you know if genetic testing can be done on the 5x thats been frozen?

    • @EggWhisperer
      @EggWhisperer  Před 5 lety

      Rene Ino not odd at all! The answer is: it depends. If the quality of the embryos is good then yes! If any of them are poor quality then it’s best not to do a biopsy. I always talk to patients about whether they really want to put an embryo through two thaws. So what I talk to my patients about is doing a thaw the day before their transfer day. Get results back the next morning, transfer the embryo you want and freeze the rest! Lower risk but a lot of work. Not all labs are equipped to do that.

    • @user-yq6uu1pi6r
      @user-yq6uu1pi6r Před 2 lety

      It can be between 20 and 80 eggs it depends on how much of the stimulating hormone you receive. Sometimes clinics are greedy and administer too much of the hormone which puts women at risk for OHSS

    Doctor Aimee, I am 32. My AMH is 2.33, Fsh is 8.2, LH is 4.4, estradiol is 38, and prolactin is 26.6. But my Vitamin D is low at 31 ng/ml. Will Vitamin D supplements improve my lab results? Thank you.

    • @EggWhisperer
      @EggWhisperer  Před 5 lety +1

      M c your results are great. No need for improvement. I would just repeat your prolactin but fasting. 31 is definitely normal. You can take vitamin d to get it higher. Won’t hurt! But there isn’t anything about your levels that has me concerned one bit

  • @iamcornholiooooo3019
    @iamcornholiooooo3019 Před 2 lety

    Doc, you seem like a great fertility doctor, but I don't like how you frame being an egg donor as something altruistic and good. If it came from my egg cell, it's MY child. No one other than me can be responsible for the wellbeing that child. Why would any sane woman ever give to strangers what's hers, without there being an opportunity to know if the child's alright? Being taken care of properly? Not being abused? If anything, I find it very selfish and un-altruistic for women to expect other women to be willing to donate their eggs. If they're so convinced assisting other women in the process of conceiving is altruistic, why do we barely see them do good deeds of their own, like being a surrogate?
    And then, there's the child that will result from that donation. Does anyone ever stop to consider how that child might feel about people having chosen that it should be raised by another mother? I would feel gravely offended if anyone ever asked for my eggs.
    It's ridiculous and I will never, ever give some greedy person my eggs. If nature decided you're not a suitable candidate for childbearing, then maybe that's for a reason.

  • @vaskylark
    @vaskylark Před 3 lety

    This is dangerous and barbaric. I'm sorry, but you aren't telling young women the truth, that they can DIE from this procedure OR be left infertile because too many of your healthy eggs are collected leaving a majority of unhealthy eggs. This has happened to women after egg donation.
    Please research, she isn't telling you the downsides and risks. I'm all for helping couples but this isn't the way. Adoption, why not adopt? So many unwanted children who need loving homes. Also, do not be sold that older mothers are better. They are tired is what they are, but not better.
