Is the baby at risk for donor diseases?

By Zaira Salvador B.Sc., M.Sc. (embryologist).
Last Update: 03/04/2022

Since egg donors have been thoroughly studied, the fear that the baby may have a hereditary disease must disappear. It is also not necessary to have an amniocentesis to see if there are malformations, since this is an invasive test that can pose a risk to the baby's development. For the mother to be calmer, you can opt for non-invasive techniques such as triple screening.
