Ensuring Excellence: Our Strict Egg Donor Standards

At Fairfax EggBank, we are the trusted choice for frozen donor eggs. We have the largest selection of diverse, pre-screened, FDA-Compliant donors to help intended parents build their families.

We follow strict guidelines set forth by the American Society for Reproductive Medicine (ASRM) and the U.S Food and Drug Administration (FDA). In addition, we track family limits on donor conceived children.

Our egg donor application and screening process is exceptionally rigorous, ensuring each one of our donors is healthy and ready to donate. Fairfax EggBank prioritizes safety and quality, providing peace of mind for those using frozen donor eggs.

Fairfax EggBank Donor screening involves:

  • Reviewing three generations of detailed medical history for each applicant
  • Using advanced genetic testing to screen each applicant
  • A physical and pelvic exam
  • Extensive infectious disease testing and STD screening
  • A mental health evaluation

We maintain high eligibility standards for our egg donors to ensure the health and well-being of both donors and recipients. Our goal is to give our recipients, who have undergone many infertility challenges, the best possible chance of conceiving a healthy baby with the help of our egg donors.

Exceptional Donor standards at Fairfax EggBank:

  • Strict Egg Donor Requirements. To be accepted into our egg donation program all applicants must meet our stringent egg donor requirements.
  • Less than .1% of donor applicants get accepted into our program. The egg donor eligibility and screening process is so rigorous that only 3 in every 1,000 applicants are accepted.
  • All Fairfax EggBank egg donors are FDA approved. This includes extensive infectious disease testing and strict screening regarding certain lifestyle factors.
  • Per ASRM Guidelines, we limit our donors to 6 cycles. Learn more about ASRM Guidelines here.

Our commitment to donor quality and service excellence makes us a premier, yet cost effective, solution for donor egg recipients. To learn more, contact us today!
