At Manchester Fertility we have UK donor eggs ready now with no waiting list – but that’s not all you can expect if you need an egg donor to have a baby.

When you come to our Cheshire fertility clinic for treatment with donor eggs, you’ll find it involves much more than just providing quality donor eggs as part of your treatment cycle.

You'll find it’s also a supportive and emotional process, one in which we’re highly skilled thanks to our years of helping women to conceive using donor eggs.

Although many clinics are now starting to invest in egg donor banks, at Manchester Fertility we’re not ‘new’ to donor egg recruitment and provision.

Our long-established egg donor bank and donor programme, Egg Donors UK, is so successful that we were the first fertility clinic in the UK to be named a Centre of Excellence by the National Gamete Donation Trust, and remain the only fertility clinic in the North to have achieved this award.

Here’s why you’ll discover a treatment journey with a difference – one that’s focused on you and your unique needs - when you come to Manchester Fertility:

Fresh and frozen UK donor eggs:

Unlike other clinics, we don’t just offer frozen donor eggs. Thanks to the success of Egg Donors UK, we’re one of the only fertility clinics in the UK to be able to offer you immediate access to fresh UK donor eggs too, with your donor’s retrieval cycle and your treatment cycle expertly synchronised by our specialist team. Our extensive choice of fresh and frozen egg donors means you’ll find your ideal egg donor match.

Preparing you for treatment with donor eggs:

You need donor eggs – but what can we do to ensure your body is prepared for this very special treatment? We’ll look at all the factors outside of treatment itself that could impact outcome, such as your existing health, lifestyle and diet. We combine fertility treatments with an expert holistic approach before your cycle starts, so your body is optimised for treatment using donor eggs. We also offer acupuncture for IVF.

And we don’t just focus on you. If you have a partner and you plan to use his sperm to fertilise your donor eggs, he’ll undergo thorough sperm analysis, and we’ll also look at his health and lifestyle too. To ensure that there’s nothing that could compromise your chances of pregnancy.

Dedicated Donation Team: Personal support for you & your partner

Our Donation Team is your personal support network, here to provide you with help when you need it. This additional support is crucial when you’re faced with the frustration infertility brings, and at Manchester Fertility we understand all of the emotions you will go through – particularly when using donor eggs - both individually and as a couple. Our team is always there to support you at every step.

They’ll get to know you and your partner well, building a close relationship with you both - so you always have someone to speak to who knows you, your journey and what you’re going through.

Choosing your egg donor: Personal insight

It’s natural to want to know as much about your egg donor as you can. And that’s where we can help. Our egg donors complete highly-detailed profiles, but we also offer personal insight. We get to know all of our egg donors very well. And this means that you can trust us when we say we’ve found your perfect egg donor.

Counselling: Professional support

The sensitivities of using donor eggs are not only complex but completely individual to you, making professional and confidential counselling a valued and vital part of treatment with donor eggs at Manchester Fertility.

Counselling gives you the opportunity to talk through any anxieties you have about using donor eggs, so you can look forward to the future with positivity as a family.

We’ll explain future factors such as your child’s right to find out who their egg donor is, all about donor siblings and support you and your partner in your decision to use donor eggs.

All Manchester Fertility egg donors are identifiable, giving your child the opportunity to learn about their genetic origins if they wish to know.

Treatment with donor eggs: Money-back guarantee

Need an egg donor but worried about the financial risk of private IVF using donor eggs? We can offer you treatment with the reassurance of a refund as well as traditional funding methods.

Manchester Fertility was the first UK clinic to offer Access Fertility’s Refund Programme for Donor Eggs Recipients. Available to women aged up to 48, it includes up to three cycles of discounted treatment with us, with a guarantee of six eggs per cycle from your chosen Manchester Fertility egg donor to help you conceive.

If you don’t have a live birth after all of the three included cycles and associated embryo transfers are complete, you will receive up to 70% of your plan fees back.

However you decide to pay for treatment, you’ll always receive a transparent and fully-costed treatment plan upfront, with no hidden costs.
