*The Egg Donation Package Guarantee: In the case of the basic package, if at least one embryo suitable for transfer is not yielded, new cycle will be provided at no extra charge. In the case of the comfort package, if only one blastocyst stage embryo is yielded and you do not become pregnant (negative biochemical pregnancy test), we will provide another blastocyst stage embryo free of charge and prepare FET (frozen embryo transfer). If there is no blastocyst achieved under the comfort package guarantee, we will provide a new cycle for free. If there aren’t enough fresh eggs available from the donor we can supplement them with frozen eggs. If the first and second fresh cycles are not successful (negative biochemical pregnancy test), a third one will be offered for free (Comfort Package) or at a 30% discount (Basic Package). This will come in the form of a shared cycle, in which case we guarantee four harvested eggs and one healthy embryo for transfer. For the guarantee to apply, sperm must be of sufficient quality (motile sperms that are not in a state of ‘teratozoospermia’), and the recipient must suffer from no autoimmune diseases, natural killer (NK) cells, or uterine fibroids. Also, any frozen embryos remaining from one cycle must be used before the next fresh cycle may commence.
