When IVF Stops Working & It’s Time For Donor Eggs (With Dr. Moomjy)


Listen Later

If you’re in IVF and quietly wondering, “How many more rounds can we do before we have to think about donor eggs?” this conversation with Dr. Moomjy is for you.

In this episode, we talk about:

– Why IVF fails for some people even when everything looks “normal”
– How many tries – at different ages – actually make sense before you seriously consider donor eggs
– When donor eggs are one option vs when they’re realistically the only path to a baby

This is not vague reassurance. We walk through what the research and real‑world data actually say, so you can have a more informed discussion with your own doctor and feel more grounded in whatever you decide next.

If you’re considering donor conception and want structured, research‑based guidance, you can learn more in our community. https://familybuilding.net/services/donor-conception-explained/
