What is Oocyte/Egg donation

Oocyte/Egg donation belongs among very successful methods of female infertility treatments. Oocytes retrieved from an anonymous donor are fertilized by sperm of the patient’s partner and created embryos are consequently transferred into the recipient’s uterus – future mother.

Legislation of the Czech Republic

The Czech Republic has a specific legislative norm in the area of gamete donation since June 2006. Conditions of oocyte and sperm donation are regulated by Act No. 227/2006 Col.: About stem cell research and related activities and about the change of some related acts. Basic principal of this act is voluntariness, gratuitousness and anonymity of human reproductive cells donation (oocytes and sperm). The sperm and oocyte/egg donation is legal.

Waiting time for oocyte donation

Treatment with donor oocyte must be precisely and thoroughly scheduled. Finding a suitable donor may take 1-3 months. Treatment cycle then takes about 4-6 weeks. Currently, the waiting time for donor oocytes is around 3 months.

Motto:

 "Our life is the only subject in this world that we cannot consider to be our private property because we have not contributed to its creation in any way. It has only been conferred upon us with the duty to return it extended and improved to our offspring."
Tomáš Ba»a



Since the year 2001 a higly specialized medical facility - Clinic of Reproductive Medicine and Gynaecology has been operating in Zlín. Its foundation was initiated by needs of the region of Zlín. The medical facility is located on the grounds of the Atlas Hospital at Tomášov.



Considering the quality of our service and introduction of the system of management corresponding to the Europian standard EN ISO 9001:2000 a successful certification of independent auditors of the international certification company TÜV Rheinland/Berlin-Brandenburg was performed at the begining of the year 2003.

Since the birth of the first child after the extracorporal fertilization 25 years have passed.The development of assisted reproduction is so dynamic that at present specialized congresses of all levels take place including world meetings in which thousands of specialists participate. It is a pleasure to claim that the Czech Republic has kept up with the world development in this respect. I can state with satisfaction that in the Center of Reproductive Medicine in Zlín some specialists, who will take care of you, initiated the development of this area in the Czech Republic.

The aim of the assistance by the reproduction is not manipulating with nature, but optimizing natural fertile ability of a couple who ask the doctor for help.

Wishing the best co-operation

Prof. MUDr. Ladislav Pilka, DrSc.

Head of Clinic
