Step 5: Egg retrieval explained by doctor 

In this video, Dr Volschenk, a Reproductive Medicine Specialist at Vitalab Fertility Clinic in Sandton explains the egg retrieval process. 

At the beginning of the egg retrieval process, the donor is put under conscious sedation and the process only takes 10 minutes. At this point in the treatment the donors’ eggs are expected to be ready are matured enough to be harvested. There will be no bleeding, cuts or stitches used in this procedure. 

What is conscious sedation? 
Conscious sedation is a combination of medicines to help you relax and to block pain, if any, during a medical procedure.
