Embarking on an egg donor program is both very exciting and very emotional. So the process of exploration for the right country, the right legalities and of course selecting the perfect egg donor profile are crucial steps for an egg donation program. Egg donation in South Africa has proven to be very beneficial from many perspectives.
Established egg donor processes – South African egg donation is established and experienced. Accordingly, a tried and trusted process exists in the best interests of all parties. Egg donor agencies that facilitate this delicate process have substantial experience in hundreds of egg donor programs, so strong reputations to offer this special service. The role of an egg donor agency is to guide, facilitate, answer questions, provide information, refer to reputable egg donor clinics, assist with the right egg donor profile selection and of course facilitate an egg donor of the recipient's preference participating on the actual egg donor program.
Legal egg donation programs - egg donation in South Africa is anonymous. This means that the identity of egg donors may not be disclosed and not compromised. Accordingly, adult pictures of egg donors may not be shown to prospectful recipients, so that they cannot identity their egg donors. However, in an attempt to consider important aspects and features of their egg donor, childhood pictures may be shown. This also means that recipients of donor eggs can consider face shape, features, specific looks, etc. whilst removing the feeling of being able to identify the selected egg donor. To protect the general public from access to the egg donor profiles, but to ease the process of viewing egg donors, a simple but quick process is available to access the egg donation database. This is a process of requesting access to the egg donor database and receiving such access immediately. It is as easy as that!
To further aid the anonymity aspect of egg donation, there is no egg donation registry. That means that at the end of the egg donation program, the egg donor's responsibility ends and it also means that egg donation recipients are empowered to disclose or keep the details of their child(ren)'s conception totally private. Either way, the process is empowering. Whilst it may not suit those that want to enable children conceived of donor eggs to be able to contact the genetic contributor or egg donor, the overwhelming feeling is to keep the egg donation private. It is not an adoption; it is a receipt of a tiny piece of genetic material, so no contract is required and the egg donor cannot claim any further rights and has no contact details of the recipient. This facilitation of details and keeping of egg donor program records all rests with the egg donation agency. In some countries, the introduction of an egg donor registry has resulted in egg donors withdrawing their applications as an egg donation registry introduces a public element of this private and personal decision of giving such a personal aspect.
The absence of any further legalities in respect of egg donation truly contributes to an attractive egg donation country. No lawyer is required, no adoption is required, no disclosure is required and no further third party is required. Only the egg donation agent who fulfils the vital role of facilitating all egg donation processes, including providing support to the egg donor and egg donation recipient and the treating egg donation clinic are aware of the egg donor details.

This includes physical traits, professional background, social preference, philosophical information, medical as well as family information. Generally an egg donor agent will go the extra mile to also afford and obtain any and all additional information required. This extensive supporting information plus any and all available childhood pictures enables recipients to make as an informed decision as possible in terms of selecting the absolute perfect egg donor. Because South Africa is a multi-racial country, the availability of egg donors embraces multi races of Caucasian, mixed races, African and Asian. This means that egg donor recipients can select an egg donor of their preference from an extensive egg donor database.

For them, it is a simple decision of, "I have eggs that are not being used, so why waste them? If I can be part of giving life, what an honour and what a privilege!" Egg donors who have a history of a successful egg donation, in other words, proven good donor eggs, can proceed to donate again upon the professional guidance of fertility specialists at egg donor clinics.
