How to Become an Egg Donor in South Carolina
- 1). Find an egg donor organization that works in South Carolina. There are many companies of this kind, some of which advertise in college newspapers and others that advertise online, or through local classified ads. Loving Donation is one example of an organization doing egg donations in South Carolina.
- 2). Request an application from the organization and fill it out completely before you return it. The application covers requirements needed of all egg donors and asks many questions about your current situation and past. You may need to answer questions about your educational background and medical history.
- 3). Schedule a telephone appointment and answer the questions asked by the interviewer. This appointment serves as an interview and gives the organization the chance to ask questions not covered by the application. The interviewer will also ask questions found on the application and expect to get the same response from you on the phone.
- 4). Attend the medical screening portion of the application process. During the medical screening portion, you're given specific tests to check for genetic disorders and check the current condition of your health. These tests look for certain diseases and disorders, including sexually transmitted diseases. You're also asked to give a complete medical history of your family.
- 5). Complete the psychological screening portion of the process, which is only given to those who pass the medical screening. Psychological tests are just one portion of the screening. The rest focuses on asking questions about your life and the people around you, as well as why you want to donate eggs. Only those who pass this screening are able to become egg donors.
