I believe that as this onion of a case is peeled away, layer by layer (making us cry and stinking up the kitchen), we will all come to the same conclusion; change is needed, we need better avenues of communication, we need to pull together and not allow these ’3′ make infertility any harder on IP’s then it already is.

Comment on How many eggs do you have anyway? By guest blogger Sharon LaMothe by Suzanne

Good question. Unfortunately, I’m not an attorney, so I can’t fully answer your question or give legal advise.There is a possibility that your daughter’s friend’s physician may approve your daughter to donate again since it would be an open donation (non-anonymous). Other factors could come into play; her past donation history and success rate, her current age and fertility levels. Typically clinics will not allow open donations if the donor is over 34 years old. ASRM (the American Society for Reproductive Medicine) recommends that donors do not donate over 6 times in their life time mostly for consanguinity purposes.

My daughter has been asked to donate her eggs to her very good friend who has been unable to concieve on her own. My daughter has already donated her eggs 6 times to IVF.
What are the legal ramifications and other possible risks.
Thank you!
