Description
Fertidonors is an egg bank based in Panama City, Panama, specializing in donor gametes, fertility preservation, and the international transport of reproductive cells for assisted reproduction treatments. The organization has more than ten years of experience in the clinical and psychological aspects of assisted reproduction, providing services designed to support individuals and couples pursuing parenthood through donor-assisted fertility treatments.
Fertidonors focuses on offering safe, ethical, and accessible solutions for both patients and fertility clinics. The mission of Fertidonors is to make carefully evaluated and verified gametes available to individuals and couples seeking reproductive treatments. The organization aims to become a leading specialized bank for egg donation both nationally and internationally while maintaining strong ethical standards and patient-centered care.
The organization is led by Dr. Jorge Castillo, a gynecologist and obstetrician specializing in reproductive medicine and an active member of several scientific societies in the field of fertility. His clinical and academic experience has helped shape Fertidonors’ programs in egg donation and assisted reproductive technologies.
Donor types and services
Patients can access a diverse pool of donors and review detailed donor profiles through a secure portal before selecting a donor. These profiles typically include extensive information on phenotype, medical history, genetic screening results, and personal characteristics to assist patients in making informed decisions.
Fertidonors also supports embryo donation programs and fertility preservation services, including the cryopreservation of eggs, sperm, and embryos for individuals and couples who wish to safeguard their fertility for the future.
Donor candidates must meet strict eligibility requirements. Egg donors are generally women aged 20–25 years. Donors must be in good health and free of hereditary genetic diseases, and they undergo medical, psychological, and genetic evaluations before acceptance into the program.
The bank works in collaboration with fertility clinics to help coordinate treatment and ensure that donor samples can be used efficiently in assisted reproductive procedures such as IVF and artificial insemination.
International coordination and logistics are key components of the bank’s services. Fertidonors provides secure transport of gametes and embryos, ensuring traceability, regulatory compliance, and cryogenic safety when samples are shipped between clinics and laboratories.
Genetic test panel
Fertidonors has a donor screening process that includes medical evaluation, laboratory testing, psychological assessment, and genetic analysis. Potential donors must demonstrate good health and no history of hereditary genetic diseases before being accepted into the donation program. This screening ensures that donated gametes meet strict safety and quality standards for assisted reproduction treatments.
