Yes.

3. How does the procedure goes in your clinic (e.g. visits for the couples, how long must they stay in your clinic, and so on, which medicaments must the person take)?
The recipient of the egg donation spends in Arizona approximately 1 week. She and her partner arrive 1 or 2 days before the egg retrieval, and depart Arizona 2 days after the embryo transfer.
