EDC Nexus | Egg Donor Registry

How Does EDC Nexus' Donor Registry Work?

We strive to deliver peace-of-mind that you have up to date family medical history for your Egg, Sperm or Embryo Donor, and your Donor is accessible & connected to your family-building journey for the sake of your loved ones’ continued health and well-being.

Depending on your arrangement, EDC Nexus also allows (pending each party's participation) Donors & Intended Parents to be connected on this family-building journey.

An IVF Professional* Registers IP & Donor Matches

Donor Program Coordinator creates linked Nexus IP & Donor accounts.
Intended Parents receive a welcome email to complete their EDC Nexus registration.
Donors are invited to complete their first medical/lifestyle update and to upload recent photos.

* A donor coordinator, nurse, reproductive attorney, etc.

Donor Medical & Lifestyle Update

Pediatricians are trained to inquire about a child's family health history in order to properly care for their patients. Depending upon a Donor's participation, EDC Nexus can help parents answer critical questions like, "What should I know about your child's family health history?"

Donor completes a 15 minute medical & lifestyle questionnaire with a focus on new developments in their personal & family medical history.
The questionnaire is shared with the Donor-Conceived Family and their clinic or agency.

Intended Parents Review Their Donor's Medical & Lifestyle Updates

Once a Donor finishes their medical & lifestyle update, linked Intended Parents are invited to review the Donor's latest information.

Every two years thereafter, Donors are encouraged to update their interactive profile to inform donor-conceived families of new developments relating to their personal, and family, medical history.
Additionally, EDC Nexus provides Intended Parents 24/7 access to their Donor's original donor profile (which may include carrier screening results, genetic reports and psychological assessments) plus photos and all biennial medical & lifestyle updates.

Intended Parents & Their Donors Communicate (Optional)

If your legal contract includes open communication, EDC Nexus provides a private messaging platform that connects Intended Parents & Egg, Sperm or Embryo Donors.

Communication must be initiated by Intended Parents
When a message is sent through EDC Nexus, the platform emails the other party to let them know a message is waiting for them.
If you'd like to share photos - you're in luck! IPs & Donors can easily upload and exchange photos with each other.
