"Pregnancy through Egg Donation and In Vitro Fertilization | The Path Chosen by a 40-Year-Old English Teacher"
2024/07/02
"Mr. Tsai, I would like to borrow eggs."
We were particularly impressed by Ms. C. This is because many patients learn about the option of egg donation only after receiving an explanation from a doctor, but Ms. C chose that path from the beginning and clearly communicated her wishes.
C is 40 years old. She is a teacher who teaches English at a junior high school and has been married for six months. Driven by her strong desire to have children, she conducted thorough research and understood that her age and irregular menstrual cycles would be significant hurdles to pregnancy. She came to our clinic through a Google search and a recommendation from a colleague.
After the test results came back, C stated without hesitation, “I want to borrow eggs. I really want to have my own child.” Knowing that our clinic has an egg bank, C was convinced, based on the test results and her own physical condition, that the possibility of natural conception was extremely low. Determined not to waste precious time, she decided to pursue egg donation.
The paperwork and fertilization with sperm progressed concurrently, and the evaluation of the uterine environment was completed without any issues. In just a little over a month since the start, the egg donation process was smoothly completed. It felt as if I had boarded the "Yasuda Express," quickly arriving at the destination of pregnancy.
Currently, I am 12 weeks pregnant. I cannot yet feel the baby's movements, but the ultrasound images show the baby moving its tiny hands and feet, as if waving to its mother. C spoke with a smile.
"I am truly grateful for having made my own decision and for making the right choice. I appreciate my husband's support and cooperation, and thanks to the director and the Yasuda team, I was able to realize my dream."
