Egg Donation IVF: Your Best Chance to Start a Family
IVF with donor eggs is one of the most successful fertility treatments available nowadays. At Gennet, we have been specializing in this method since 2008. Thanks to our comprehensive donor program, top embryology team, and unique success guarantees, we have helped thousands of couples realize their dream of parenthood. We will guide you through the entire journey with care, empathy, and expertise.
What is Egg Donation IVF and to whom Is It intended?
IVF with donated eggs is a treatment method where the healthy eggs from an anonymous donor are fertilized in a laboratory with the partner's sperm (donor sperm can also be used). As a result the embryo is then transferred to the patient's uterus, allowing her to experience pregnancy and childbirth.
This method offers hope and an effective solution for women who:
- Have a low supply or low quality of her own eggs (often due to older age, ovarian surgery, conditions after chemotherapy/radiotherapy, etc.)
- Suffer from premature ovarian failure or lack ovaries
- Have had repeated failed IVF cycles with their own eggs
- Carry a genetic disorder they do not wish to pass on (It is not possible to perform effective genetic testing of embryos)
- Have severe endometriosis
Why to Choose Genent Our Donors and Unique Guarantee
The success of egg donation IVF depends on two key pillars: the quality of donor eggs and the expertise of the laboratory. We set the highest standards in both areas.
Carefully Selected and Screened Donors
-
Comprehensive medical and gynecological evaluations
-
Testing for infectious and sexually transmitted diseases (HIV, hepatitis B and C, syphilis)
-
Genetic consultation and full genetic screening (karyotyping, CF, SMA, and more)
This thorough process protects your health and your future child's well-being.
Our Unique Success Guarantee
We are one of the few clinics that offer you assurance, that we care. Our program guarantees that you will obtain at least two high-quality embryos in the blastocyst stage that are suitable for transfer. If we do not meet this condition (in order to fulfill the guarantee, the quality of the sperm must not be significantly reduced), you will receive another, so-called asynchronous cycle – free of charge. This can significantly increase your cumulative chance of success.
Treatment Process Step-by-Step
Initial Consultation and Planning
Meeting with a doctor (online or in person) to review your case and receive a personalized treatment plan. Initial tests (semen analysis, blood work) are scheduled.
Donor Selection and Synchronization
Our team selects the most suitable donor from the database based on blood type compatibility and phenotype (appearance). Treatment can be carried out using either fresh or vitrified donated oocytes. In the case of a fresh cycle, the doctor uses medication to synchronize your cycle with the donor’s cycle. If you prefer not to undergo synchronization for any reason, it is not required and a cryotransfer can be scheduled instead.
Endometrial Preparation
While the donor undergoes ovarian stimulation, you will take medication to prepare your endometrium for embryo transfer. Ultrasound monitoring ensures optimal growth.
Egg Retrieval and Fertilization
On the day of the donor's egg retrieval, your partner provides a semen sample (donated sperm may also be used). Our embryologists immediately fertilize the eggs using ICSI and other advanced techniques.
Embryo Culture and Selection
Embryos are cultivated for 5–6 days (extended cultivation). The best-quality embryo with the highest potential is selected for transfer.
Embryo Transfer
A quick, painless, anesthesia-free procedure to transfer the embryo into your uterus, only under ultrasound guidance.
Pregnancy Test
About 14 days after the transfer, a blood test checks your hCG levels to confirm pregnancy.
"Thanks to an anonymous donor, I experienced the indescribable joy of becoming a mother. I want to thank every woman who chooses to donate and help others find happiness. We are finally a family. You gave us a miracle. Thank you.“

The guaratnee program
Embryo guarantee
THE GUARANTEE PROGRAM ensures that the client receives at least 2 blastocyst-stage embryos, assuming sperm quality was not qualified as OAT or worse according to WHO criteria. If the client receives only 1 blastocyst and does not achieve pregnancy (confirmed heartbeat), at least 1 additional embryo will be provided in an asynchronous cycle. If the patient becomes pregnant with only 1 blastocyst, no fürther embryos will be cultivated for the patient.
A third cycle is provided
Free of charge
For patients who do not achieve pregnancy (confirmed heartbeat) after two cycles with donated eggs (after transferring all embryos created during these cycles), and sperm quality in both cycles is not qualified as OAT or worse according to WHO criteria.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Fulfill your dream of a family. Take the first and most important step by discussing your options with our experienced doctor. The consultation is non-binding.
Can I choose my egg donor?
No. Czech law mandates strict donor anonymity. Our team selects the best match based on blood type and phenotypic similarity.
How long does the process take?
From your first consultation to embryo transfer, the process usually takes 2 to 4 months. This allows time for testing, donor matching, and cycle synchronization.
What’s the benefit over adoption?
If using the partner’s sperm, the child will carry his genetic information. You will also experience the entire pregnancy and birth, creating a bond from the very beginning.
What are the age and BMI limits for recipients?
Treatment is legally allowed for women up to 48 years and 364 days. For a healthy pregnancy, we recommend a BMI below 40.
