Apply without pressure
Begin with a brief eligibility questionnaire. It is not a medical clearance and does not obligate you to continue.
Become an egg donor
A generous choice—made with clear information.
Egg donation asks for time, commitment, and trust. RCA gives you a physician-led process, a dedicated coordinator, and space to decide whether donating is right for you.

Start with the essentials
What egg donation may involve.
The process moves in stages. You should understand the medical, emotional, legal, and practical commitments before deciding to continue.
Complete screening
If invited forward, screening may include medical history, examination, infectious-disease testing, ovarian-reserve assessment, genetic review, and psychoeducational consultation.
Prepare for a cycle
Your care team explains medications, monitoring visits, schedule expectations, possible risks, and the retrieval procedure before treatment begins.
Eligibility preview
Is egg donation a possible fit?
Eligibility is individualized. RCA’s clinical team makes the final determination after reviewing current medical criteria and your complete information.
Health and medical history
Applicants should be generally healthy and able to complete required medical evaluation, laboratory testing, and monitoring.
Time and reliability
Appointments and medication timing matter. Your coordinator will explain the expected schedule before you commit.
Family and genetic history
A detailed personal and family history helps the clinical and genetic teams assess suitability and identify questions that need follow-up.
Informed, voluntary choice
You should feel free to ask questions, consider counselling, and make your decision without coercion or pressure.

Care remains connected
Screening is more than a checklist.
FDA donor-eligibility requirements focus on communicable-disease risk. Professional guidance also addresses medical history, genetic assessment, psychoeducational counselling, and informed consent. RCA coordinates these steps as one program.
Your questions matter
Understand the commitment before applying.
How long does the process take?
Timing varies with application review, screening, matching, and cycle planning. The active medication and monitoring period is only one part of the overall journey. Your coordinator provides a schedule specific to your pathway.
What happens during medical screening?
Screening may include a history and physical examination, ultrasound and laboratory assessment, infectious-disease testing, and other evaluation required by current RCA procedures. A clinician reviews results with you.
Will I receive counselling?
Psychoeducational consultation helps you consider emotional implications, privacy, future contact possibilities, donor-conceived people, and what participation may mean over time.
How is compensation handled?
Compensation recognizes time, inconvenience, and commitment; it is not payment for eggs or a promised outcome. RCA confirms current terms, expense arrangements, and payment timing before a cycle begins.
Can I stop after I apply?
A first application is only an initial review. Your coordinator explains later consent points and when decisions affect clinical planning or other participants.
