Using An Egg Donor To Build and Grow Your Family in Kansas City: What To Expect

When using an egg donor for in vitro fertilization, it is essential to understand all aspects of the process and know what to expect.  Most women and couples that attempt conception with an egg donor have been trying to conceive for quite some time and are unsure what to expect in their new quest to build their family.  For those that have been on the path to parenthood for a long time, one of the best expectations you can have is that your chances for success are greater than you have ever likely had since you started your journey.

The best way to know what to expect is to make sure you are well informed before moving forward with egg donor in vitro fertilization.  It is always a good idea to get several opinions from reliable sources.  The hard part is that many well-intentioned people in your life may give you their opinions about using an egg donor to build and grow your family.  It is best to base your final decisions on facts, and with making a choice that feels comfortable for you.

Why Do Surrogacy Clinics Require Mental Health Screenings?

If your clinic requires you to meet with a mental health professional before moving forward with using an egg donor or sperm donor, you may feel angry and defensive. This reaction is common and normal as the assumption by most intended parents are that they are going to be “assessed” or “evaluated” to determine if they are fit to be parents.

This is NOT the reason for the required meeting.  Unfortunately that is not typically explained by the clinic’s staff simply because they may not have the time or information to accurately explain the purpose and intent of the required meeting.

The purpose of the meeting is to help you, educate you, and advocate for your unborn child.  The intent is to prevent psychological harm or distress to your current and future family.
