Asian egg donors

My husband and I are mixed race couple, he's white and I'm Indian. I was told today that my AMH (1.8) and FSH results were poor and looking like egg donor is our best option. The clinic only has Caucasian eggs and I was wondering if anyone in my situation has any advice. I'm considering an Asian egg donor but if that's not possible we'll go for a Caucasian donor.

The other question i would like to ask is whether AMH or FSH changes each time. Is it possible to have my AMH results improved?
Thanks in advance

AMH levels might Fluctuate slightly but at 1.8 they probably wouldn't go up enough to change the diagnosis. In terms of Indian donors - have you considered trying to find one yourselves? Either online or perhaps a family member or friend? Alternatively, you could try going with a donor in Greece or Spain (seem to be very popular destinations) - you could get matched up with a Southern European looking donor - obviously not Indian but at least would avoid having a pale blond baby with blue eyes...

Thanks JoJoSM2 for the feedback. We found a clinic in London they have Asian donors and even though there's a waiting list we are considering them. My husband is blond and blue eyes so has strong genes Smile. I heard about going to Spain from a consultant but our preference is to try to stay local. Take care..

Clutching at straws here as you wrote your post years ago but i’m in the same boat i’m Indian and partner is white & can only find very very few people to ask about Indian origin donor eggs in the UK! If you have any feedback please can you share?
