Genetic testing may also be carried out if required.
Thus, at Sprouting Seed, utmost care is taken in screening the donors, and only healthy, fertile and disease-free donors are chosen. When we have a patient in need of a donor egg, we choose a suitable one from our bank after matching the profile of the recipient with the profile of the donor.
