The Egg Donor Process
What to Expect as an Egg Donor from Minneapolis
Takes3 is not a medical or fertility clinic. Instead, we partner with leading IVF clinics across the United States to provide egg donors with the highest level of support and guidance. With over 20 years of experience, we’ve built trusted relationships with fertility specialists to ensure our egg donors are respected, valued, and well cared for throughout the process.
The egg donor journey begins with an online application and initial screening to determine eligibility. If selected, the full egg donor process takes three to four months and includes medical, genetic, and psychological screenings, followed by a carefully monitored egg donation cycle.
Egg donors complete preliminary tasks in their hometown, followed by a one-day screening trip, and a week-long visit a few weeks later. All travel is fully covered and scheduled well in advance. Minneapolis egg donors most often travel to cities such as New York, Boston, San Francisco, and Los Angeles.
From the moment you submit your egg donor application to the egg retrieval, our team guides you at every step, including medications, monitoring appointments, and the egg retrieval procedure, ensuring a smooth, supportive experience.
