Why would a woman need donor eggs:
- She cannot produce her own eggs
- She doesn’t have good quality eggs
- She experiences early menopause, which stops her producing her own eggs
- Chemo or radiation, due to cancer, have destroyed her eggs
- She has a hereditary disease that may be passed on to her children, so she would prefer to use healthy donated eggs
- Her eggs may be “too old” or not good enough to be used
