Egg Donation Isn't Done for the Money
There are many young women who say that they would consider
egg donation as a way to earn some money during their college years. After all, the procedure can garner you anywhere from $4000-$8000 depending on where in the nation you donate. However, the women who are in it only for the money rarely make it past the front door of the infertility treatment agencies that pair egg donors with parents seeking fertility help.
The idea of donating your eggs purely for money may seem appealing, especially as the
economy goes into decline. However, the process of egg donation is a complicated one that requires a serious commitment. In order to make that commitment, women need to be motivated by more than just the money.
The average woman who is an egg donor is motivated in large part by an altruistic urge. She wants to help a family that can't have children by donating a part of herself that she's not using at the time. She may be glad to get the money but she wouldn't do it only for the money. That's something that serves to relieve the parents who want to know why a stranger would be so kind as to give them her eggs.
