At Aspire Fertility McAllen, we offer one of the most trusted egg donation programs in Texas, combining expert care with compassion and support for every family.
Find Your Donor
When Is Egg Donation Needed?
There are many reasons why someone might use donor eggs. Some of the most common include:
- Early menopause or premature ovarian failure
- Low egg quality or low egg supply
- Advanced reproductive age
- Genetic conditions that could be passed on
- Fertility challenges after chemotherapy or radiation
- LGBTQ+ family building
- Single intended parents
No matter your reason, our team will help guide you to the best option for your journey.
How We Screen Egg Donors
We know how important it is to feel confident about your donor. That’s why every donor goes through a careful and thorough screening process before being accepted. This includes:
- Detailed medical and lifestyle history
- Ovarian reserve testing (checking egg supply)
- A psychological evaluation with a licensed counselor
- Review of three generations of family medical history by a genetic counselor
- Comprehensive genetic testing for inherited conditions
- Screening for infectious diseases
These steps ensure that all of our donors meet the highest standards for health, safety, and readiness.
Explore Our Donor Database
Choosing a donor is a big decision, and we want you to feel supported every step of the way. Our secure donor database provides detailed profiles so you can make an informed choice. Each profile may include:
- Personal background and family history
- Education and career information
- Hobbies and interests
- Medical and genetic health history
- The donor’s reason for choosing to donate
- Photos at different ages
A Wider Selection Through MyEggBank®
Aspire Fertility McAllen partners with MyEggBank®, the nation’s largest frozen donor egg bank. This partnership gives our patients access to one of the broadest and most diverse selections of donors in the U.S., making it easier to find someone who feels like the right fit for your family.
Fresh vs. Frozen Donor Eggs
We offer both fresh and frozen donor egg cycles. Each has its benefits:
Frozen Donor Eggs
- More flexibility and faster treatment (no need to sync with the donor’s cycle)
- A larger pool of available donors
- Lower overall cost
- Reduced wait times
Fresh Donor Eggs
- Interested in having more than one child or biological siblings
- Can allow for genetic testing of embryos for single gene conditions (Preimplantation Genetic Testing for Monogenic Disorders or “PGT-M”)
- May be needed if you have specific medical needs or personal preferences
Our specialists will help you decide which option best supports your goals.
