Reproductive Medicine Associates of Michigan and Donor Egg Bank USA Hit 1,000 Embryo Transfer Milest

TROY, Mich. - Sept. 22, 2014 - PRLog -- Reproductive Medicine Associates of Michigan, the premiere fertility center in Michigan, and Donor Egg Bank USA, the largest frozen donor egg bank in the United States, have reached the milestone of more than 1,000 embryo transfers (https://donoreggbankusa.com/success-rates) completed.

Reproductive Medicine Associates of Michigan has partnered with Donor Egg Bank USA to provide frozen donor eggs as a treatment option for women who are unable to conceive using their own eggs. Donor eggs provide the highest pregnancy rates of any fertility treatment. After a frozen donor egg is fertilized with sperm, the resulting embryo is transferred to the patient’s uterus.  As a partner of Donor Egg Bank USA, Reproductive Medicine Associates of Michigan offers local patients access to a national donor database.

Pregnancy success rates of frozen donor eggs are nearly equal to that of fresh donor eggs. Of the 1,000 transfers at Donor Egg Bank USA, 59 percent of women became pregnant and 44 percent continue to carry a pregnancy or have delivered a baby.   Left over embryos not used in the original transfer increases a woman’s chances to achieve a live birth from a single egg lot to over 50 percent. Donor Egg Bank USA is the only frozen donor egg bank that provides pregnancy outcome data for all locations and every transfer.

“For some patients donor egg may be their only option when it comes to fertility treatment. Being able to offer them frozen donor eggs, which are less costly and have similar success rates to fresh eggs, is a wonderful thing,” explains Dr. Brad Miller of Reproductive Medicine Associates of Michigan.

“With donor egg offering the highest pregnancy rates of any fertility treatment, this is an important option for couples to have," says Heidi Hayes (https://donoreggbankusa.com/news/leadership), CEO of Donor Egg Bank USA. "We’re honored to partner with Reproductive Medicine Associates of Michigan to make this option available to local couples."

In addition to Reproductive Medicine Associates of Michigan, Donor Egg Bank USA is partnered with 28 leading partner practices (https://donoreggbankusa.com/locations) at 95 locations throughout the United States and Canada.

While a traditional (fresh) donor egg IVF cycle can cost $25,000-$38,000, a frozen donor egg IVF cycle is half the cost. Couples can obtain frozen donor eggs immediately and complete an IVF cycle in as little as one to two months. With a (fresh) egg donor the entire process can range from four to nine months.

The national donor database offers a wide range of characteristics such as physical traits, ethnicity, education level and more. All donors in the database have completed their donation cycle and have frozen eggs ready for selection.

Donor Egg Bank USA is the only frozen donor egg network to offer the 100% Assured Refund Plan™ Program (https://donoreggbankusa.com/financial-options/frozen-cycl...) which guarantees a full refund if a couple does not deliver a baby after six cycles.
