In order to access our Egg Donor Database, you will need to obtain a login and password first by CAREFULLY following the directions on this page. Once we verify your information we will call and email you a password.
Please read our TERMS OF USE before you fill out our questionnaire to receive a password. It contains very valuable information about how our company operates and the responsibilities of you and your fertility clinic during the Egg Donation Process. We do not recommend you proceed with Egg Donation unless you fully understand what is involved and you have a lengthy conversation with your doctor about how Egg Donation works.
You may consider reading this informational guidebook titled "Becoming an Egg Donor" about what is involved in the egg donation process from the Donor's perspective. The guide was created by an independent group and published by the New York State Department of Health for Egg Donors.
OBTAIN A PASSWORD TO THE DATABASE
Complete the Intended Parent Questionnaire in order to obtain the login and password.
Several times a year Fertility Bridges changes the password to access the Egg Donor Database and requires Intended Parents to re-register with the most current information.
PREVIEW DATABASE
Before you obtain a password, you can preview our 2009 Egg Donor Database by characteristics if you have Microsoft Excel.
Download the Donor Database Microsoft Excel file if you would like to sort manually by height, eye color, hair color, State, or other characteristics, on your desktop. If you don't know how to sort by column use your Help menu in the program.
You won't be able to view additional information and photos on Donors until you have full access to the online database after your receive a password.
Once you do access the database, be sure to look at all 12 pages of donors by clicking on the numbered boxes at the bottom of the page. We have 30+ repeat donors and over 225 total donors. We also add new donors every week so check back often.
Fertility Bridges recommends that you work with a repeat donor to increase your odds of retrieval success. There is no guarantee that a repeat donor will perform any better at producing viable eggs than a new donor, however it may save you time and money determining their suitability for egg donation.
DATABASE FEATURES
Currently we have over 225 Egg Donors with nearly 5,000 photos posted by the Donors.
Every Donor in our database is college educated, which makes our database unique in the industry.
Another unique feature of our database is the special technology in our network that allows you to communicate anonymously with the Donors and ask questions and receive replies directly.
A word about the Egg Donors in our Database
We aim to fill our database with Egg Donors that possess health, beauty, grace, and intelligence. As an Intended Parent, it is important to consider all of an Egg Donor's attributes. You must proceed with extreme caution and guidance from a licensed medical professional who understands the risks of egg donation. There is no guarantee that the egg donor you choose will provide you with the outcome you desire.
Eggs, Intelligence, and the X Chromosome
Some scientists have theorized that the primary intelligence genes are found on the X chromosome. Boys are born with an X chromosome from the egg and a Y chromosome from the sperm, so if intelligence does lie primarily on the x chromone then it is possible that the majority of boys intelligence will come from the egg. Girls are born with two X chromosomes, one from the egg and one from the sperm, so it is possible that their intelligence is a combination of both the sperm and egg. Of course, there is never any guarantee of any level of intelligence regardless of the quality of the egg, sperm or the intelligence of the either or both donators of the egg or sperm. Please talk to a geneticist if you have any questions.
Egg Donor's DNA
New tests have been developed by technology companies that will allow your doctor to look at the genetic profile of your donor and decide if she is a good candidate for egg donation. For only $399, which used to be the cost of testing for just one genetic disease, you can test for approximately 80 inheritable diseases they know of today. Visit www.23andme.com for more information and decide with your doctor if this is a good test for your Egg Donor. It may be valuable to know this information for the health and well-being of your child throughout their life.
