Egg donation consists of one woman choosing to give her eggs to help another woman become pregnant. Women who want to be donors go must go through an intense screening process.
The egg donor procedure begins with hormone injections that help stimulate the ovaries to produce eggs. Once the eggs are ready for retrieval, a fine needle is inserted through the vaginal wall, into the follicles where the eggs are the removed.
Egg retrieval usually only takes 10-15 minutes and can be done under general anesthesia in the office.
About Pacific In Vitro Fertilization Institute
Pacific In Vitro Fertilization Institute is Hawaii's first IVF clinic in Hawaii. Since 1985, we’ve quietly built a history of couples with successful pregnancies who previously had no hope of bearing children on their own. Now providing treatment for patients worldwide, Pacific In Vitro has been steadily expanding its international patient base.
The staff at Pacific In Vitro Fertilization Institute will take the time to ensure that all of your questions and concerns are addressed. Our clinic is open 7 days a week to make sure that we are accessible and responsive to our patients’ needs. We are committed to providing excellent medical care with a warm, compassionate approach. Pacific In Vitro Fertilization Institute is recognized as the state of the art IVF center in Hawaii that provides compassionate care in a pleasant environment, with the highest standards of ethics, professionalism, and integrity.
We now have an EmbryoScope, which is one of the latest advancements in In Vitro Fertilization technology, this allows embryologists to monitor the complete development of embryos without removing them from the incubators. Embryos are extremely sensitive to changes in temperature, light and oxygen so keeping them in a closed environment is most ideal for their development.
The EmbryoScope makes continuous documentation possible and also maximizes the information collected in this crucial stage. Embryologists are now able to screen abnormalities more effectively and select the best embryo for Embryo Transfer
