Egg donation is a process in which a fertile woman donates eggs to another woman to help her conceive. It is a part of assisted reproductive technology.
The procedure typically involves a doctor retrieving eggs from the donor, fertilizing them in a laboratory, and then transferring the resulting embryos into the recipient’s uterus. Doctors do this using an implantation procedure, such as in vitro fertilization (IVF).
Egg donation frequently benefits women who cannot use their own eggs for various reasons, including ovarian failure, avoiding congenital anomalies in the fetus, or advanced age.
Specialists at Dashin Reproductive Center will conduct an intensive selection process to find a suitable Taiwanese donor and will carefully run through the legal procedures.
About Egg Donation in Taiwan
The law on egg donation called Artificial Reproduction Law was enacted in Taiwan in 2007, and has been operated safely and appropriately under the control of the Taiwanese government.
To become an egg donor, donor participants have to take a blood sampling test and pelvic examination. Registration will be made also after proved the absence of a genetic disorder in the relatives within fourth degree.
One of the biggest features of Taiwan is that egg donors cannot give eggs over and over, and donors can give their eggs only to 1 couple except for their own. The government prohibits the commercial use, and it is a safe mechanism that one donor cannot provide eggs to multiple people.
However, due to the laws governing the protection of personal information, patients are not allowed to see donor information in Taiwan. Patients can make a request for the donor’s race, skin color, blood type, single or double eyelid.
Choosing egg donation as an option
Egg donation involves using eggs from a donor, rather than one’s own.
Ideally, it is best to conceive and give birth using one’s own eggs. However, fertility treatments can be long and without a clear end in sight. Repeated treatments place a physical burden on the body, and discovering that it may be difficult to conceive with one’s own eggs often leads to disappointment and anxiety.
More and more people, after undergoing fertility treatment for many years, are now choosing egg donation as a final option.
With the hope of bringing the joy of giving birth to a child carried in one’s own womb—and the joy of raising that child— we are wholeheartedly committed to supporting those who long to become parents.
Those Who May Need Egg Donation
1. Women who have difficulty conceiving with their own eggs due to age-related decline in fertility
2. Women who have been unable to achieve pregnancy despite undergoing fertility treatments
3. Women who have experienced repeated miscarriages even after becoming pregnant
4. Women who have had their ovaries removed due to benign or malignant tumors
5. Women with ovarian dysfunction
6. Women who have experienced premature menopause

About Egg Donation
Egg donation involves using eggs from a donor rather than your own.
Ideally, being able to conceive and give birth using one’s own eggs is the best. However, infertility treatment can be long and exhausting, often without a clear end in sight.
The repeated treatments take a toll on the body, and the realization that conceiving with one’s own eggs may be difficult can lead to disappointment and anxiety. In recent years, more and more people who have undergone prolonged infertility treatment are turning to egg donation as a final option.
We are dedicated to supporting those who long to experience the joy of giving birth to a child they carried in their own womb, and the happiness of raising that child.

Egg Donor Requirements
Under Taiwanese law, women can become egg donors up to the age of 39. However, our clinic sets a stricter age limit of “30 years or younger” to further increase the chances of pregnancy.
In addition, we have established our own criteria, requiring donors to have a normal BMI, be non-smokers, and possess at least a university-level education.
All applicants are screened based on their appearance, and eligibility for donor registration is determined accordingly. Due to our strict standards, the acceptance rate is approximately 10%.
Currently, over 100 donors who have passed these rigorous screenings are registered with our clinic.
We also require donors to be at least 155 cm in height, in order to rule out the possibility of hereditary causes of short stature.
