Hi, I was hoping for some advice and to understand others experience.
We have recently completed our first and only nhs icsi cycle. Unfortunately I was a poor responder to fertility drugs. We want to go private and continue our ivf journey, and want to give ourselves the best chance possible, so are considering donor eggs.
My sister has already offered to donate eggs, she's 34 and meets most criteria apart from her bmi which is a bit high (although she wants to diet to bring this down, she is amazing!), and she would need to check her afc etc. Our clinic also have a frozen egg bank and boast success rates of 50-60%.
I was wondering how many donor egg cycles it has taken others to be successful, i want my sister to have as much information as possible when she's making her decision, and whilst I can talk her through the stims process, are there any other donor risks we should consider?
And in terms of anonymous donors, my clinics embryo stats look amazing, but how did you find fertilisation and reaching day 5?
I seem to fall down rabbit holes of information online and it would be really good to understand others experience
