Samenvatting

OBJECTIVE: To assess whether there is an increased risk of infertility in women that have previously undergone ovarian stimulation and oocyte retrieval for oocyte donation.

DESIGN: Cross-sectional survey.

SETTING: Tertiary referral center.

PATIENT(S): A total of 194 past oocyte donors.

INTERVENTION(S): Telephone questionnaire.

MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S): Incidence of infertility after oocyte donation.

RESULT(S): Of the women who indicated having pursued conception after oocyte donation, 95% (57/60) became pregnant unassisted. Before oocyte donation, 41 women in this cohort had already been trying to conceive, of which 38 had delivered a child and 3 (7.3%) had needed infertility treatment.

CONCLUSION(S): The data suggest that oocyte donation does not affect short-term reproductive health.
