WILL I HAVE TO TAKE TIME OFF WORK OR STUDIES?

Yes—but not a lot. Most appointments are scheduled for early in the morning so the egg donor will have as little disruption to her schedule as possible. The retrieval day will require an entire missed day. Most egg donors return to school or work the following day. Due to the time sensitive nature of the procedures, it is most important that an egg donor recognise the level of responsibility required in making and keeping appointments.
