Altrui’s task is to open up your options for finding an egg donor. We are fully aware that you may already have been through the mill trying to start a family and, if you are reading this, we assume that you have been told that using an egg donor will give you the best chance of conception. We are also aware that you might have been told that there is a shortage of donor eggs in the UK. In short, we know you have already faced huge disappointment and anxiety; but we are here, and Altrui is dedicated to working with you to find an egg donor and to give you clear guidance and help, to sort this out.
You may feel like you have few choices left but we know there are women willing to donate eggs to someone just like you. Our highly personal service will use your profile to advertise for egg donors – someone who wants to offer this gift because they recognise the heartache caused by the inability to conceive, perhaps having seen it in close family or friends. These amazing women, who may be mothers themselves, know the joy a child can bring and appreciate the misery of not being able to have one.
Our service guarantees one donor to one recipient. At Altrui we put great emphasis on this – that any eggs from an IVF treatment cycle will be for your use only so the best embryos can be selected for you. This way any spare embryos may be stored for your use – for a future frozen cycle or for further children that are genetically and biologically related to each other. This egg donor will have responded to your advertisement; this is a gift they have chosen to give to you alone, making the whole process much more personal and potentially much more successful.
