Donor Egg Program
Since its inception in 2004, SRM has quickly become recognized as a leading center for patients seeking IVF utilizing donor eggs. The largest program of its type in the Pacific Northwest, SRM helped over 100 patients complete donor egg cycles in 2007.
There are many reasons for couples struggling with family building to utilize a young woman’s eggs to achieve pregnancy. This may include advanced reproductive aging, multiple in vitro fertilization failures, history of chemotherapy or radiation therapy, and premature ovarian failure.
We know how difficult it is for couples to be placed on a prolonged wait list for an egg donor. That’s why at SRM we go to great lengths to pair recipients with donors within three months of their initial work-up.
Success rates
The Donor Egg Program at Seattle Reproductive Medicine has consistently achieved among the highest pregnancy rates in the country through continuous refinements in clinical and laboratory techniques.
SRM’s outcomes well exceed national averages with regard to both live birth rate and the low number of embryo’s transferred. In 2006 72% of donor egg cycles resulted in clinical pregnancy.
Egg Donor Registry
Patients don’t want to wait 6-12 months for an egg donor. We’ve made a substantial commitment to the recruitment and screening of anonymous donors to allow of our patients more choice. Our approach to recruitment and screening allows patients to cycle more quickly, economically, and with greater selection of potential donors. Our online database allows patients to conveniently review all donor records.
Financial Considerations
Treatment financing options and the Attain IVF Refund Program®, which offers up to 100% refund if IVF with donor egg is not successful, allow more patients than ever to pursue treatment at SRM. Our financial counselors are available to answer questions about the cost of treatment and how our financial services can be utilized.
Experienced Team
Our Donor Egg Team is staffed by three full time coordinators, a full time donor recruiter, a physician medical director and nurse practitioner. Complimenting this experienced team are two counselors, a genetic counselor and an acupuncturist. This commitment of staff allows patients of SRM to be cared for medically and emotionally.

Patients travel to SRM for services from around the globe. For your convenience, we make ever effort to minimize travel and coordinate with local providers whenever possible.
We provide patients with local resources including local restaurants and local hotels which provide SRM patients discounted rates. For the convenience our patients, especially those traveling from out of the area, our facilities are equipped with Internet Kiosks and a wireless network.
