Donor & Surrogacy

Helping You Build Your Family with Our Egg Donor Program

Expanding Parenthood Possibilities

When natural conception isn’t an option, our egg donor program offers a compassionate solution and provides a path to parenthood. Our program connects intended parents with healthy, carefully screened egg donors to help make their dream of having a child a reality.

Who Can Benefit from Egg Donation?

Our Michigan Fertility Institute egg donor program supports individuals and couples facing fertility challenges, including:

Thoroughly Screened and Qualified Egg Donors

We ensure the highest standards in donor selection, offering both known and anonymous donor options. Donors undergo a rigorous screening process, including:

All anonymous egg donors are between 21-34 years old to help select eggs that are at their healthiest and most viable.

A Personalized and Supportive Experience

At Michigan Fertility Institute, we provide a boutique, patient-centered approach. Dr. Ali Bazzi and his amazing team oversee each step, ensuring both donors and intended parents feel supported. Once a donor is chosen, the cycle typically takes 1-2 months, though availability may vary based on specific criteria. Additionally, we collaborate with an egg bank, offering access to a diverse range of donor options.

High Success Rates and Immediate Availability

Our egg donor program success rates exceed national averages, giving patients a strong chance of achieving pregnancy. Many donors are available immediately, though some criteria may require a waiting period.

Your journey to parenthood is unique, and we’re here to guide you every step of the way. To learn more about our egg donor program, contact us today!

Building Families Through Gestational Surrogacy

A Path to Parenthood for Those in Need

Gestational surrogacy offers a life-changing opportunity for individuals and couples who are unable to carry a pregnancy themselves. A gestational carrier, also known as a surrogate, carries and delivers the baby on behalf of the intended parents, making parenthood possible for those who need extra help.

How Surrogacy Works

Gestational carriers can be someone you know, such as a friend or family member, or an anonymous surrogate matched through a trusted program. Before starting the process, all surrogates undergo comprehensive medical and psychological screening to ensure they are suitable candidates. Both intended parents and surrogates must also have legal representation to protect everyone involved.

Surrogacy requires donor eggs, which can come from the intended mother, a known donor, or an anonymous egg donor. These eggs are fertilized with sperm from the intended father or a sperm donor, and the resulting embryo is carefully screened before being transferred into the surrogate’s uterus. With proper care, the pregnancy progresses naturally, and the baby is delivered into the loving arms of the intended parents.

Who Can Benefit from Surrogacy?

Gestational surrogacy is a great option for:

• Women who do not have a uterus or have a uterus that is damaged or non-functional
• Women who have experienced multiple pregnancy losses or poor pregnancy outcomes (such as preterm birth or second-trimester losses)
• Women with medical conditions that make pregnancy too risky for their health
• Same-sex male couples and single men pursuing fatherhood
