Agency fees: $4,000 Due upon Egg Donor selection
|
$5,000 and up
|
This does not include costs associated with IVF procedures for the egg donor.
Fees can vary tremendously depending on numerous factors. For example, Indiana state laws prohibit egg donors from compensated more than $3000. If you are looking for a particular ethnic group or other distinction (Ivy League, for example), expect to pay more – some people have paid up to $30,000, but this is discouraged.
Known Donor Fees
If someone you know, such as a close friend or family member, decides to donate her eggs, there will still be expenses involved. You will still need to pay for all medical screenings, IVF expenses, as well as attorney fees, psychological review and insurance. When you are operating without an agency, do not attempt to save a few hundred dollars by eliminating any of these costs.
