I had a very positive experience at a clinic in Ukraine. I was diagnosed with unexplained infertility. We had to use donor eggs to have a child. The process was anonymous. Btw the clinic uses fresh eggs. This was exactly what we were looking for. Now I'm 8 months pregnant and waiting for my daughter to see the world! After multiple failed treatments we almost lost all our hope. So it was an excellent result, which is, of course, partly luck, and partly the skill of the embryologist. Also since the donors are proven for the programs and we used fresh eggs, the result didn't make us wait. I gave the list of certain features I'd like to see in my donor to my program coordinator. The clinic proposed us 3 donors and we chose one who we liked the most. This was important for me. I felt much happier starting the cycle with a sense of who the donor is. The program coordinator sent us all the information we needed, organized our transport from the airport and generally made everything very easy. Dr. speaks excellent English and explained everything clearly. She was very warm and friendly, and I was glad to have her as my doctor. I'm pregnant and I've never been happier before!

people who say just adopt think that raising a biological child is the same as raising an adoptive child, but its not. nurture isnt the only thing that affects a child, you cant just ignore the aspect of genetics. at least when you raise a bio child you know more if they have genetic diseases or if they have weird personality traits. but if theyre adopted, all that info is a big question mark. and agencies do everything possible to make sure that it stays a question mark aka they dont want you to know. some people dont want to deal with that, arent prepared to deal with that. you cant judge them for wanting a bio connection. adopted kids can come with a whole host of issues, you have to be fully knowledgeable on them. the primal wound, cultural exploration, racism, attachment disorder, the high rates of mental illness. and i would know, because im adopted myself.

tip for IVF patients: A well balanced diet will absolutely help your chances of success, try and prepare this at least 3 months before the transfer, take part in the fertility diet to enhance your reproductive organs and ensure good quality blood supply to the uterus. Good quality blood supply to the uterus increases protein and nutrient secretion around implantation, which your embryos will love.

Dear international viewers, this is exactly how Gandhari, the consort of the blind king, Dhritarashtra, gave birth to her sons under Vyasa's constant supervision as mentioned in the Mahabharata.
