being the product of sperm donation is very much the same thing as egg donation, so i'd like to take a moment to give you my perspective on this issue, as i am a product of sperm donation.

i don't agree with sperm or egg donation.

here's what donors consider: the potential parent(s) and what their feelings are.

here's what they don't consider: the child created and what their feelings are/will be.

the child(ren) are the ones who matter more.

what you need to consider most is not just the mom/couple trying to have the baby(ies)...she needs to think about the child(ren) that will be created from it. growing up knowing that there's someone out there who is your real parent, along with the fact that you have a whole bunch of half-siblings out there, is hell. the children will grow up wondering if every woman they pass on the street is "her." they'll cry whenever they hear the song "where is love" from oliver twist (i do, because in my mind the words get changed from she to he and her to him and such). they'll have to ask every person they date, embarrassingly, what their mothers have done in the past to make sure they're not half-siblings. they'll grow up having to deal with an identity crisis that is HEARTWRENCHING. it's not a fun way to grow up, i promise you. on top of that, can we put the ethics into perspective please? you would be making money by creating a life. that's not ethical at all. and what the kids will think is: my mom sold me. if you think i'm nuts, do research into it. examine the whole thing from the perspective of the kids. please do. thanks

Egg donation requires an egg donor to take injectable fertility medications and have her eggs removed (egg retrieval). Is this a risk to her fertility?

Initially, egg donors were infertility patients who agreed to split their eggs with a second or third recipient. Later, fertile women were recruited to become egg donors. Since that time, physicians have been concerned that the process of egg donation may impair the future fertility of these young women. In many cases, the women who agree to be egg donors are young, unmarried and have never had children or attempted to become pregnant before. It is important, therefore, to ensure, that these women are not harming their own fertility.

The risks of egg donation include the risks of using fertility drugs and the risk of the egg retrieval itself. Fertility drugs can induce ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome causing a small number of women to become sick enough to be hospitalized. The egg retrieval can very rarely cause an infection or bleeding. Infection could lead to the formation of an abscess and the need for surgery to remove infected tissue. Bleeding could lead to scar tissue which might impair the ability of the eggs to get into the fallopian tubes.
