Our Donor Selection Protocols at Vita Altera Cyprus IVF Center
How We Select Our Donors
At Vita Altera Cyprus IVF Center, we value thoroughness and precision in every aspect of donor selection. Our commitment is to prioritize “healthy donors” over merely focusing on egg or sperm quantity and quality. Recognizing that our donation recipients take particular care in choosing a donor, our role is to fulfill those expectations using specialized testing, anonymized processes, and rigorous evaluations.
Every Detail Matters in Donor Selection
Donors never learn any personal data about the intended parents, and there is no direct interaction between the donor and recipient. Since our clinic acts as the liaison, neither party has access to each other’s identity:
- Strict Confidentiality: We store sensitive information using robust privacy protocols. Donors provide eggs or sperm to the clinic—not directly to recipients—meaning no personal information is shared.
- Legal Requirements in Cyprus: Cyprus law ensures egg donors remain anonymous, and only non-identifying details (physical traits, basic personality attributes) can be disclosed to the patient.
- Certified Sperm Banks: We source sperm exclusively from reputable international banks (e.g., Cryos, European Bank), offering comprehensive screening and detailed donor profiles.
Safe and Efficient Donor Selection with a Digital Tracking System
We have adopted a specialized digital platform to oversee our entire donor process:
- Real-Time Matching: This system helps us swiftly identify suitable donors based on health metrics, genetic findings, and recipient preferences.
- Digital Encryption: All data—including donor records, lab results, and treatment logs—are encrypted and accessible solely to authorized staff.
How We Select Our Egg Donors
We do more than standard medical checks. Our clinic also implements in-depth genetic carrier screenings:
- Genetic & Chromosomal Testing: Comprehensive analyses (e.g., karyotype, cystic fibrosis, thalassemia, SMA, DMD, Fragile X) identify potential hereditary risks.
- Ethnic Variations: We maintain a varied pool of donors from multiple ethnic backgrounds, allowing us to find a compatible match quickly.
- Ongoing Performance Monitoring: By employing specialized software, we continuously evaluate the egg performance of our donors, ensuring consistent, reliable data.
- Detailed Donor Profiles: Physical traits, mental well-being, educational status, and ethnic origins are included. Each donor meets strict criteria regarding health, background, and personal stability.
How We Select Our Sperm Donors
Due to Northern Cyprus regulations, we rely exclusively on internationally certified sperm banks. Vita Altera ensures:
- Stringent Screening: Donor sperm must test negative for infectious agents (Hepatitis B/C, HIV, Syphilis, etc.) and genetic conditions (Cystic Fibrosis, Thalassemia, karyotype anomalies).
- Ethnic & Physical Diversity: We maintain various donor profiles to meet the aesthetic or ethnic preferences of recipients.
- Optional Personalized Selection: If desired, patients can choose a sperm sample from a specific external bank that meets their criteria, and we will coordinate its transfer to our clinic.
