Embryo Donation

Embryo Donation

Even in the most hopeless moments, seek your way out at Fertina: A Journey of Hope with Embryo Donation.

At Fertina IVF, we offer embryo donation treatment for couples who cannot achieve their dream of parenthood, in accordance with ethical, legal, and scientific standards. This method is preferred in cases where both egg and sperm cells are needed, and with its high success rates, it is a promising option.

What is Embryo Donation?

Embryo donation is the process of transferring an embryo, created from donated eggs and sperm, into the uterus of a woman who wishes to become a mother.
Sperms are imported into our clinic with the permission of the Ministry of Health of the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus, from Denmark-based sperm banks (Cryos and European Sperm Bank).

It is a highly successful method, with pregnancy rates of 80–90%.

Donor Selection

Egg donors at Fertina IVF undergo a strict screening process. Sperms are brought from Denmark-based sperm banks (Cryos and European Sperm Bank) with the permission of the Ministry of Health of the TRNC.

All donors are:

  • Between 20–30 years of age
  • Fully screened with comprehensive health checks
  • Tested for genetic and infectious diseases
  • Recorded with physical and ethnic characteristics
  • Non-smokers and non-drinkers

At Fertina IVF, we provide:

  • A wide donor pool for personalized matching
  • High success rates
  • A process fully compliant with ethical rules and confidentiality

Treatment Process

1. Embryo Screening

Donated embryos undergo a rigorous screening process to assess their genetic characteristics, quality, and viability. This makes it possible for the embryos to be transplanted in vitro, where there is a higher chance of a successful pregnancy. The medical screening starts from the egg donor and the sperm donor themselves.

2. Embryo Transfer

The transfer is planned once the target parents have selected the appropriate embryos. The procedure, which involves delicately transferring the embryos into the recipient's womb in the hopes of achieving a successful pregnancy, involves delicate work.

3. Pregnancy Test

Following embryo transfer, the procedure's outcome will be determined by doing pregnancy tests and routinely monitoring the pregnancy. The specialists at our clinic will be available to provide guidance and support throughout this period.

I had an amazing experience at this IVF clinic. From the very first consultation, the staff made me feel supported and at ease. They were incredibly professional, thorough, and genuinely caring throughout the entire process. Thanks to their expertise, I am now expecting, and I am so grateful for their guidance. I would highly recommend this clinic to anyone seeking fertility treatment.

Located in the South of Cyprus, this is another popular option depending on your passport and flight availability.

What is the process for using a donor and what information is provided?

For patients requiring an egg or sperm donor, we have a comprehensive and carefully managed donor programme. The process is governed by strict local regulations that ensure complete donor anonymity.

Our donors undergo rigorous screening, including extensive medical, genetic, and psychological evaluations, to ensure the highest standards of quality and safety. While the donor's identity remains anonymous, you will be provided with a detailed, non-identifying profile which typically includes:

  • Age and physical characteristics (hair/eye colour, height, build)
  • Blood type
  • Nationality and educational background
  • Profession and personal interests/hobbies

This allows you to choose a donor with characteristics that are important to you while respecting the legal framework of anonymity.

How do you manage treatment for international patients travelling to North Cyprus?

We specialize in making the process seamless for our international patients. Your journey is managed by a dedicated International Patient Coordinator who will be your single point of contact.

After your initial consultation, we will create your bespoke treatment plan.

We offer two flexible pathways for our patients travelling from abroad.

1. The Coordinated Pathway (1-Week Stay in Cyprus)

For your convenience, you can begin the initial stages of your treatment at home. We will coordinate with a UK-based clinic for your preliminary scans and tests. You then travel to Cyprus to complete the final stages, requiring a stay of as little as one week for your key procedures. This option is popular as it minimizes your time away from home.

2. The Immersive Pathway (3-Week Stay in Cyprus)

Alternatively, you can choose to undertake your entire treatment cycle with us in Cyprus. This allows you to step away from daily routines and relax in our calm, supportive environment. This all-inclusive pathway typically requires a stay of approximately three weeks.

Whichever pathway you choose, your coordinator will assist with planning your trip, providing recommendations for premium accommodation and organizing private airport transfers. Our goal is to manage all the logistics, allowing you to focus completely on your treatment in a calm, stress-free environment.

What are your success rates and how can we trust them?

This is often the first and most important question we receive. While we are proud of our excellent success rates, which are in line with top European clinics, we believe in providing you with a transparent and realistic perspective. Rather than focusing on a single, generic statistic, we provide a personalized success projection during your initial consultation. This is based on your specific age, medical history, and diagnosis.

Our success is built upon the expertise of our world-class clinicians and embryologists, who utilize state-of-the-art laboratory technology, including AI-driven embryo selection. We are committed to ethical and transparent reporting, ensuring you have the confidence and clarity you need to make an informed decision.
