Yes, CARE Fertility provides a comprehensive egg donation program. The clinic was the first practice in North Texas to achieve a live birth using a frozen donor egg and continues to offer both fresh and banked donor egg cycles.

The program includes genetic screening of donors, synchronization of cycles, and coordinated embryo transfer, delivering high pregnancy rates for patients with diminished ovarian reserve or other egg‑related infertility.
