  • Assisted Reproductive Technology
  • Oocyte Donation

Background:

  • Established an oocyte donor program for women with impaired ovarian function.
  • Oocytes were voluntarily donated by women undergoing laparoscopic sterilization.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To assess the feasibility and participation rates of oocyte donation among women undergoing tubal ligation.

Main Methods:

  • Recruited women undergoing laparoscopic sterilization for oocyte donation.
  • Offered compensation for participation in stimulated ovulation cycles and monitoring.

Main Results:

  • Only 21% of 194 women met eligibility criteria for oocyte donation.
  • Of those eligible, only 12% agreed to participate in the program.
