General treatment process
If a donor embryo pathway is appropriate and available under current rules, the recipient’s uterus is prepared and the embryo is thawed and transferred, similar in outline to a frozen embryo transfer. Availability is not listed on this website.
Important considerations
Genetic relatedness, counselling, consent, and regulation are central. This is not legal advice. Outcomes vary, as with other fertility treatments.
Frequently asked questions
Is a donor embryo the same as adoption?
No. A donor embryo pregnancy, if it occurs, is carried by the recipient. Legal parentage follows applicable law, which you should confirm with a qualified professional.
