, which is when the ovaries become enlarged and can lead to several serious problems such as blood clots or bleeding.
This was particularly obvious when it came to the egg extraction. The scheduling of the surgery relies on the pace of the hormonal drugs in the body, so it cannot be decided according to the donors' convenience. When the eggs are ready to be collected they are ready to be collected—and this can differ from patient to patient. When donors are ready, they have to administer the final injection, which is the one that makes them ovulate before they are scheduled for the surgery the next morning.
If the process has to be stopped before the extraction for reasons that aren't the donor's fault, such as the medication not producing the expected effects on egg production, most clinics do not offer compensation.
