What are the obstetric risks in egg donation?
Some papers showed that risks in egg donation are related to the fact that average maternal age is higher than average age in women who get pregnant with their own eggs. This means that risks are not related to the fact that eggs are donated but to the age of recipients. Obstetrics risks in women over 40 years old are hypertension, diabetes, preterm delivery, low-birth weight and second half hemorrhage. These complications are usually well managed in expert prenatal care.
