How to Become an Egg Donor at Santa Monica Fertility
Fill out the online application form
This form will be reviewed by one of our Donor Egg Bank coordinators who will then contact you regarding the application.
Consult with a Doctor at Santa Monica Fertility
You will have a phone or in-person appointment with a Fertility Specialist, who will review you medical history in more detail, perform an ultrasound of your ovaries and obtain blood for various medical and infectious disease screens.
Consult with a psychologist and genetic counselor
If your medical screening tests return normal, you will have a telephone interview with a psychologist and separately with a genetic counselor.
Creation of an electronic donor profile.
An electronic profile will be made for donors who pass all medical, psychological and genetic screening tests. You will be asked to provide photographs and may undergo a professional photo shoot. Your profile will be password protected and shared with intended parents interested in choosing you as their donor.
Execution of the legal agreement. Upon matching with an intended parent, you will be referred to an attorney who will represent you in the creation of a legal agreement between yourself, Santa Monica Fertility and the intended parent(s). This legal agreement is meant to protect the privacy of all parties and further outlines your compensation, duties and rights as an egg donor.
