Cofertility

Cofertility's new study highlights the current state of Egg Freezing in 2024 It was in 2013 that the American Society for Reproductive Medicine - ASRM stated that egg freezing was no longer ‘‘experimental’’ and opened the floodgates for routine use. And since then, egg freezing has been proven a safe and growing option for those seeking to navigate an increasingly complex reproductive landscape. Conducted in partnership with our medical advisors Dr. Marieme Mbaye, MD, FACOG, and Dr Meera Shah, Cofertility's State of Egg Freezing: 2024 Trends and Insights report aims to dive deeper into this trend, examining the motivations driving this demand, technological advancements, and the evolving societal implications of delayed parenthood. - Demand for egg freezing is soaring, with a 30% year-over-year increase in cycles - Motivations for egg freezing evolve with age and egg freezing offers flexibility amidst these changing life goals - The number of egg freezing cycles remains relatively small compared to other reproductive procedures - Egg freezing aligns with the broader trend of “later” parenthood, reflecting shifts in how women navigate career, relationships, and reproductive choices As egg freezing moves further into the mainstream, the coming years will undoubtedly reveal evolving dynamics and new layers of complexity within the rapidly changing field of reproductive health.

Cofertility for Intended Parents At Cofertility, we’ve designed our egg sharing programs to provide intended parents with value-aligned choices and establish a mutually beneficial model that honors both the egg donor and the recipient(s). Instead of cash compensation, our donors receive accessible egg freezing, retaining half of the eggs retrieved when they donate the other half to your family. ✨ Benefits of Egg Sharing: 1️⃣ Ethical and Human-Centered - In a recent Harvard study, it was revealed that 62% of donor-conceived adults viewed the exchange of money for donor gametes as ethically problematic, with 41% expressing discomfort regarding the monetary aspect of their conception. If cash compensation doesn't align with your values, egg sharing offers a compelling alternative that can eliminate discomfort and ethical concerns associated with treating eggs as commodities. 2️⃣ Shared outcomes - Instead of financial gain, our donors are motivated by a deeper desire to help others while also taking proactive steps toward their own reproductive future. They are invested in helping you, but also in achieving their own fertility goals. 3️⃣ Greater Donor Diversity - The shortage of qualified egg donors, particularly among women of color, poses a significant challenge for diverse intended parents seeking a genetic match. The unique structure of egg-sharing programs removes barriers and fosters a welcoming environment for women of all races and ethnicities. 4️⃣ A Win-Win Situation - Egg sharing helps intended parents grow their families while simultaneously empowering women by expanding their reproductive choices and increasing access to fertility preservation. Research indicates that egg sharing donors consistently report higher levels of satisfaction and positive experiences, underscoring the transformative impact of this approach on donor well-being. While egg sharing isn’t right for everyone, we believe everyone who wants to be a parent has the right to do so. Egg sharing offers not only intended parents additional pathways to parenthood but donors the ability to grow their future family on their own terms.

How is Cofertility different for egg donors? We believe that egg donation is more than just a one and done experience — it’s a deeply personal and meaningful journey for everyone involved. Our mission is to humanize the egg donation experience, ensuring it is empathetic, respectful, and empowering for donors and intended parents alike. ✨ Empathy and Respect - Every egg donor is a person with her own dreams, aspirations, and values. We honor this by providing a supportive and compassionate environment where donors feel valued and understood. Our comprehensive screening and counseling services ensure that donors are well-informed and comfortable every step of the way. ✨ Empowering Choices - Egg donation should be a choice that empowers all parties involved. By offering egg sharing programs, we enable donors to retain half of their eggs for their own future use, giving them control over their reproductive futures while helping other families grow. ✨ Personalized Support - Every family-building journey is unique. Our Member Advocates offer personalized support to donors and intended parents, guiding them through the process and addressing their individual needs and concerns. This ongoing support continues even after the baby arrives, ensuring a seamless and fulfilling experience. At Cofertility, we’re not just building families; we’re creating a community of care, respect, and empowerment. Our approach to egg donation goes beyond the clinical aspects, emphasizing the human connections and emotional experiences that define this incredible journey.

Thank you to Forbes for highlighting Lauren Makler, our co-founder and CEO, and Cofertility, in the latest article on the Rise of The IVF Influencers. At Cofertility, we know firsthand that family-building is a journey. We feel so passionately about supporting our members who share their stories—whether creators, influencers, or simply our peers—because we know that by doing so, they’re helping make topics of infertility and egg donation feel less taboo and potentially even motivating others to take a more proactive approach to their own fertility. A survey from HRC Fertility found that 60% of Gen Z are concerned about their future fertility. This concern is reflected in the growing trend of egg freezing, which has seen a dramatic increase—from just 475 women in 2009 to nearly 25K in 2021. We know that social media plays a big role in helping destigmatize topics around fertility and reproductive preservation and we’re proud to create and champion content that is transparent, educational, and sparks meaningful conversation.

As a clinic working with Cofertility, your patients will be able to match with our hundreds of pre-qualified egg donors. Through our unique egg sharing model, egg donors do not receive any cash compensation as part of their donation. Instead, they undergo a split cycle where they donate half of the eggs retrieved and then freeze and store the other half for up to 10 years for free. This model offers intended parents an option that aligns with their values and helps both parties take meaningful steps toward their family-building goals. ▪ Quickly match intended parents with a qualified egg donor: Each intended parent has their distinct preferences and requirements. With our proven track record of attracting diverse egg donors, we can help assist your clinic in meeting the needs of a wider spectrum of intended parents. ▪ All cycles are managed in accordance with your existing clinic protocols: We’ll have a dedicated onboarding session to document any clinic-specific protocols or SOPs. Everything from donor screening to travel will be done in complete alignment with your standard clinical, operational, and financial processes. ▪ Transparent and responsive team of Member Advocates: Throughout the cycle, our team of Member Advocates will offer administrative and emotional guidance to the donor and intended parent and serve as a liaison between both parties and the clinic.
