Embryo donation in Hyderabad
Infertility can be a challenging journey, and for some couples, traditional treatments like IVF, IUI, or ICSI may not provide the desired results. In such scenarios, embryo donation offers a powerful and compassionate alternative, giving new hope to aspiring parents. At Fertilica IVF, we provide expert-guided embryo donation treatment in Hyderabad, helping countless individuals and couples realize their dreams of having a child.
Understanding Embryo Donation
Embryo donation involves the transfer of embryos—created by another couple using their own gametes—to the uterus of a recipient woman who is unable to conceive with her own eggs and/or her partner’s sperm. This treatment is recommended for women facing premature ovarian failure, poor egg quality, or for couples where both partners are infertile. It is also an option for single women and same-sex couples who desire parenthood.
Unlike egg or sperm donation, embryo donation involves fertilized embryos, which increases the chances of pregnancy as the embryos come from healthy, thoroughly-screened donors.
Embryo Donor Evaluation & Eligibility
The process begins with a detailed evaluation of the embryo donors. Donor couples are often those who have undergone IVF and wish to donate surplus embryos altruistically. At Fertilica IVF, strict protocols ensure the safety, health, and suitability of both the donor couple and the recipient.
Donor eligibility includes:
- Age under 35 years (ideally, for both male and female donors)
- No history of hereditary diseases or genetic disorders
- Negative screening for infectious diseases (HIV, Hepatitis B & C, Syphilis)
- Psychological readiness and informed consent for donation
The recipient must have a healthy uterus and be psychologically prepared, as the child will not share genetic ties with her or her partner.

The Donated Embryo Transfer Process
1. Synchronization of Menstrual Cycles: The recipient’s cycle is synchronized with the development stage of the embryos using hormones to prepare the uterine lining.
2. Thawing of Donated Embryos: Frozen embryos are carefully thawed in the lab.
3. Embryo Transfer: A simple, painless procedure under ultrasound guidance transfers embryos into the uterus.
4. Luteal Phase Support: Hormonal medications support implantation and early pregnancy.
5. Pregnancy Testing and Follow-Up: Beta-hCG blood test confirms pregnancy after 12-14 days, followed by ultrasounds and consultations.
Success Rates of Embryo Donation
Success rates at Fertilica IVF are among the best in the region, thanks to strict donor screening and superior lab standards. Pregnancy rates per transfer average 40-50%, with encouraging live birth outcomes. Factors like age, uterine health, and embryo quality play key roles.
Psychological and Legal Aspects of Embryo Donation
Choosing embryo donation is a significant emotional decision. Fertilica IVF provides counseling to address emotional and ethical concerns. Legally, informed consent is mandatory. We follow ICMR guidelines to ensure transparency and protect anonymity of donors and recipients. Legal agreements clarify parental rights and obligations.
Embryo Donation vs. Other Fertility Treatments
Embryo donation is often chosen after unsuccessful IVF, ICSI, or donor eggs/sperm treatments, especially when avoiding genetic risks. Unlike adoption, embryo donation allows the recipient mother to experience pregnancy and childbirth.
Why Consider Embryo Donation?
Embryo donation may be ideal for:
- Repeated IVF failures due to poor embryo quality
- Infertile couples or those carrying genetic risks
- Single women or same-sex couples
- Recurrent miscarriages from chromosomal issues
It also gives a chance to embryos that might otherwise remain unused.
