Frequently asked questions about embryo donation in Cancun

How is this different from embryo adoption in the US?

In the US, embryo adoption programs often involve legal contracts between the donating couple and recipient, sometimes including home studies similar to traditional adoption. In Cancun, the process is handled medically and anonymously. There are no legal proceedings, no home study, and no contact between donor and recipient. It is simpler and considerably less expensive.

How long do I need to be in Cancun?

Most patients spend 7 to 10 days. Endometrial preparation can start at home before you travel. You come to Cancun for monitoring appointments every other day and the transfer itself. Some patients manage the stay in fewer days depending on how their preparation progresses.

Who is this treatment suitable for?

1. Patients where neither partner can contribute viable eggs or sperm
2. Those who have had repeated IVF failures and want to try a donated embryo
3. Anyone who wants to experience pregnancy without a full donor egg IVF cycle
4. Patients looking for the most cost-effective path to parenthood in Mexico

Is the PGS package worth considering?

PGS tests the embryo for chromosomal abnormalities before transfer. It adds around MXN 15,000 to MXN 20,000 to the base package cost but can improve the chances of a successful implantation and reduce the risk of miscarriage. If you have experienced previous failed transfers, it is worth discussing with your clinic before you decide.
