DE possible?

this may be a dumb question, but is it possible to use a CCB donor and an egg donor? How would that work? From everything I've seen egg donors can only be done through IVF, but I may be wrong.

Thanks!

    also, does CCB work with any egg donor clinics or recommend any?

    thanks again

    Hi star -

    We do not work directly with any egg donor agencies or have any recommendations.

    Yes, you can certainly use an egg and sperm donor. It would require an IVF treatment in which the sperm would be introduced to multiple eggs in a lab procedure. You would hopefully get multiple blastocysts to form and be able to freeze any embryos not transfered for implantation.

    Good luck,

    thanks Scott for the quick response...

    so, the IVF would be done at the facility with the egg donor and would the CCB donor sperm be sent there? I guess I'm wondering if there would be alot of exact timing involved....like everything has to be ready at once.
    Thanks!

    Hi Star -

    Yes, we would ship the sperm to the egg. The IVF facility will have a storage tank to keep the sperm safe upon arrival, so you can ship the sperm anytime and have it waiting.

    Good luck,

    Scott
