Revisiting the early days of oocyte and embryo donation: relevance to contemporary clinical practice
Oocyte and embryo donation have evolved significantly since they were first introduced to treat human infertility nearly four decades ago. Social, ethical, and regulatory challenges to oocyte and embryo donation have generated controversy and invited public scrutiny. However, oocyte and embryo donation continued to provide physicians the opportunity to treat the “untreatable.” Undoubtedly, clinical practices related to oocyte and embryo donation have greatly changed over the years. Yet, they have endured as viable choices of treatment for many patients and their physicians, remained popular owing to their versatility, and, perhaps most importantly, provided consistently high pregnancy success rates.

Sometimes like a strange greek comedy, you end up with multiples! Those going through the trials and tribulations of infertility should take swift and decisive action always in pursuit of their goal and take each and every professional for what they offer you to this end and not much more.
