Compared with other European countries where egg donation is possible, Spain offers real advantages.
Because of the cultural values there, many more young women in Spain are prepared to be donors. This means that wait times for patients are significantly shorter, because enough eggs are available. In addition, this also results in significantly greater choice when it comes to external characteristics.
Egg donation is a widespread fertility treatment method in Spain. Clinics specialising in reproductive medicine therefore have extensive experience and excellent quality standards. With the longer cultivation period for embryos possible under Spanish law, Spanish reproductive medicine specialists achieve even higher success rates.
The Spanish legislature takes a very liberal approach to human reproductive medicine. As well as egg donation, it also allows additional forms of treatment which are not permitted in Switzerland.
Unmarried couples, single women and lesbian couples can be treated with donor sperm in Spain. Even embryo donation is possible, in which both sperm and eggs are from anonymous donors.
