using donor eggs 50+ anyone?
Posted , 4 users are following.
Hello everyone! I'm 52 and I was diagnosed with menopause. I was recommended to use IVF with donor eggs and I'm ok with it. As I know there is an option to have a donor who has similar appearance. I feel great. I have no chronic illnesses. Everyone says I look 10 years younger. I hope to talk to someone who used donor eggs. It would be nice to hear your recommendation of clinics and doctors, maybe agencies. There are many advertisements, but it's always better to come to a doctor not after seeing advertising, but after hearing a positive reviews. I see many stories about successful IVFs in the age over 45. But it's hard to find stories about using donor eggs in such age. What about age limits in the clinics? As I know all countries have different limits. I dream about having a baby. I think it's time for me to make my dream come true. I hope you'll help me with advice.

I can't help much. I don't have experience with donor eggs. My mom's friend had ivf with donor eggs a couple of years ago. She was 53 and gave birth to twins. As I know she contacted clinic directly and didn't use any agency. She had ivf somewhere in Europe. Also I remember the donor was anonymous and she used fresh eggs. As you've said many clinics have their age limits. I'd advise you to monitor those limits. And then just contact clinics via mail. And also pay attention to success rates. I wish you good luck! It’s never too late to become a mother. I hope you’ll accomplish your dream.

Thank you for your comment. I'm happy to know about the experience of your mom's friend. This is hard to find stories about women over 50 who used donor eggs and successfully gave birth. Your story gives me so much hope. Now I also think that using agencies is just a waste of money. Also I don't want to risk and face a scam. Thank you dear. I will take into consideration everything you've said. I appreciate your support. Many people tell me I'm crazy I want to have children now. They are judging. They are laughing. But this is my life and my decision. They've never been in my shoes. I think all people should mind their own business. I signed up at another forum too. It seemed to me that forum is a community for the most evil people in the world. All I received there was hate and disapproval. They were discussing my menopause with such mockery... That is fertility forum and many women there have problems with having kids... I don't understand what I’ve done to deserve their attitude. They said it's too late for me. I know I shouldn't listen to them... But they made me sad. I didn't expect to receive so much negative from people, who have same problems. I'm sure I will give my child everything he/she will need or want. I’m 100% sure I will be a great mother. I’ll take care of all nuances. I’ll do everything possible(and impossible) for my child to be the happiest in the world. Again, thank you for support. It means a lot for me. I hope I’ll start the process soon.
