Surrogacy and Egg Donation Q and A


Surrogate Mothers Online Q & A
  • Q & A: Financial Issues - Egg Donation

    Topics may include compensation, covered expenses, overall costs, etc.

    3. Are there different laws in each state for egg-donor compensations? I have heard of many people who have received far more than the $2,000-$3,500 compensation you quoted for California. - Tracie in MO - Top

    Dear Tracie,

    I don't think there are any laws regulating egg donor compensation as of yet.

    Good Luck,
