Re: Would You Sell Your Eggs To Pay Off Debt?
You're basically risking death and disfiguration, future infertility, as well as screwing up your hormonal axis. If you are desperate for money, you could consider it. Also remember that they will have very strict age, educational, genetic and health background criteria before accepting your eggs, so I'd be certain I'm a "10" in almost all checkboxes before wasting my time even investigating this. But if I were a female who was very healthy, with great family and genetic background, and of a good age (18-30) and healthy, I'd do it realizing that it will increase my "genetic fitness" - i.e. I would be spreading my genes throughout the nation/world with a reduced personal expenditure in financial and physical expenses over time. It would cost me $300,000 maybe to raise a child to adulthood in the US, thus I could only afford to raise 1-4 children using my own efforts over 18 years each. On the other hand, for the price of the risks outlined above + the time necessary for the application and the procedures, I'd be able to spray my genetic fitness over the world without any additional time/expense spent. This tactic is much easier for sperm donor males. If any of you will donate, let us know the protocols involved, what questions and screening was done before you were denied/accepted.
