Donor Embryo Program
The Donor Embryo Program at Penn Fertility Care
offers infertile couples the chance to successfully
achieve a pregnancy. Using a donor embryo is an
excellent form of treatment for couples that have
been unsuccessful in achieving a pregnancy either
on their own or through assisted reproductive
technologies with their own eggs, and for those
who have experienced multiple pregnancy losses.
Penn Fertility Care receives donated cryopreserved
embryos from patients who have gone through in
vitro fertilization treatment. When these couples
have completed their family, they are given the
opportunity to anonymously donate their unused
frozen embryos for potential use by recipient
couples.
At Penn Fertility Care, recipient couples view
the profiles of donated embryos (i.e. medical
history of the donating couple) and select the
embryos they would like to use. Our practice does
not match recipient couples with donated embryos.
We believe the embryo selection is an important
decision that should be made by the recipient
couple.
Penn Fertility Care understands that every patient
faces a unique set of circumstances regarding
their fertility. We offer personalized services
to assist you in the donor embryo process. Our
staff of highly skilled physicians and nurses
will help you through the entire process. From
your initial consultation through the implantation
process, we will be available to answer your questions.

embryos, or would like more information about
