    Welcome

    Once you’re accepted, we add you to our secure database of donor angels. Recipients see your baby photos, your donor number and your profile. Never your name.

  4. A recipient chooses you

    You get a call

    Recipients register to view our donor database. When someone chooses you, we contact you and ask whether you would like to donate for them.

    It’s always your choice. You decide each time whether the timing is right. We never disclose your name or personal details.

  5. Your clinic appointments

    About 2 weeks of medication

    Your first appointment with the fertility doctor includes an ultrasound, a pelvic examination and blood tests. A donor coordinator or psychologist is there for you too. Ask anything you like.

    Once you’re cleared as physically and emotionally ready, your cycle is matched with your recipient’s. You then take fertility medication for about two weeks, with regular clinic visits to check how your eggs are developing.

    Nervous about injections? We send you an easy, step-by-step guide to your medication schedule and we are a message away whenever you need us.

  6. Donation day

    About 20 minutes

    Your mature eggs are collected with a fine needle guided by ultrasound. You are sedated, so you won’t feel the procedure. There is no cutting and no stitches.

    R8 000 to R10 000Compensation, paid by the clinic 2 to 3 days after you donate

    You have just given someone the chance of a new life.
