The donor program is the right way to help people who can't use their sperm & egg to conceive due to clinical and personal reasons. Many couples wish to opt for the donor sperm & egg. The desired lady won't genetically connect with the child she expects because she uses someone's egg. But the father can connect with the child genetically if he can use his sperm to fertilise the egg. The males & females who want to be part of this program will be screened with various parameters. The expected donor has to undergo many medical tests and counselling.
About the procedure of the program
In this program, the doctors follow a procedure where the eggs of a healthy donor will be fertilised using the donor's sperm. The process takes place in the sperm bank or laboratory, and the resultant embryos will be placed in the intended woman's womb for a certain period to achieve the pregnancy. At the same time, the couple needs to understand that the child they are expecting will be their biological child rather than the genetic one. It's a prerequisite program through which the couples & individuals undergo multiple sessions of counselling to make them ready for the treatment.

After the treatment of cancer, the ovaries won't function well in some cases, and at that time, you can get benefits from this program. Single parents or same-sex couples can join this program if they expect to give birth.
