The Untold Tragedy of "Egg Donation"

"I am an 18-year-old female and I was conceived using an egg donor....I can not put into words the pain of not knowing who my biological mother is and not being able to have/have had a relationship with her....

"I’m afraid of marrying and having kids with a man I’m related to. I don’t think that’s likely, but still, I believe it’s a valid concern....

"As a donor conceived child, there are so many things I simply don’t get to know....

"Please adopt, at least those kids are already in existence, don’t go out of your way to create a child. Or just don’t have kids at all. No one should have to spend hours on hours feeling alone and wondering about half of their biological family. I wouldn’t wish this pain and wondering on ANYONE" (Anonymous Us, 5/27/19)
(Seen on a PATH train, 1/17/20)

With an attractive, savvy, and deceptive ad campaign, unprincipled individuals exploit young women physically, psychologically and spiritually.... As per the web site for Eggsploitation,
    "The infertility industry in the United States has grown to a multi-billion dollar business. What is its main commodity? Human eggs. Young women all over the world are solicited by ads—via college campus bulletin boards, social media, online classifieds—offering up to $100,000 for their 'donated' eggs, to 'help make someone’s dream come true.' But who is this egg donor? Is she treated justly? What are the short- and long-term risks to her health? The answers to these questions will disturb you . . .

    Produced by The Center for Bioethics and Culture (Lines That Divide, 2009), Eggsploitation spotlights the booming business of human eggs told through the tragic and revealing stories of real women who became involved and whose lives have been changed forever."
