Choosing an Egg Donor in Oregon
Many of our former IPs describe selecting the right egg donor as one of the most important decisions they ever made. New IPs are given access to our database of pre-screened egg donors.

How Egg Donors Are Screened in Oregon
At Fertility Source Companies, each of our potential new donors undergo several types of screening exams and background checks, including:
A complete physical exam
A lifestyle assessment
A mental health screening
A criminal background check
Genetic testing (to ensure there are no detected disorders that could be passed to the baby)
A personality profile
An evaluation of the donor’s commitment level (to ensure completion of the egg donation process from beginning to end)
A blood test to screen for drug use or certain health disorders
Running an “Egg Donor Wanted” ad will not ensure proper screening of candidates, nor will it lead to identifying candidates with viable eggs. When you use a professional egg donor agency, such as Fertility Source Companies, you can rest assured that every candidate you consider has been thoroughly physically and mentally screened to ensure they are ready and able to successfully complete the egg donor process.
Intended parents (IPs) often select an egg donor based on the donor candidate’s medical/hereditary history, personality traits, and physical characteristics.
The egg donor fees and costs are around $16,500, plus other out-of-pocket costs, like travel fees, cycle medications, and other expenses.
