Hollywood Fertility Centre
Thank you for your enquiry regarding egg donation. It is available to people from outside Australia, but there are three main considerations:
1. If the people are not eligable for Medicare (the Government health insurance scheme) then all procedures will have to be paid for by the patient.
2. There is a tremendous shortage of donated eggs and embryos in Australia, as in most parts of the world.
3. Assisted reproduction is governed by State laws rather than a central federal law. Patients should therefore confirm any local restrictions that might be applied (eg it is illegal to perform IVF in Western Australia if the woman is single).
Good luck with your website and let us know the address when it appears.
Yours sincerely,
Phillip Matson,
Scientific Director
