Payment for donation of unused frozen eggs is unethical
Many women become emotionally vulnerable when the time comes for them to decide what to do with their unused frozen eggs. Very often, due to changing life circumstances, such as natural conception after getting married, the majority of women who undergo elective freezing for non-medical reasons find that they no longer need to utilize their stored frozen eggs. However, after investing money, time and effort in egg freezing, and paying for expensive storage fees over several years; they would naturally feel a sense of loss if their unused frozen eggs were simply discarded or donated for research.
The offer of compensation/reimbursement in return for donation of their eggs to other patients could thus exploit the vulnerable emotional state of these women in despair over the impending wastage of their hard-earned money, and in dilemma on what to do with their unused frozen eggs, by cajoling them to recoup their losses via donation.
To further ‘sweeten the deal’, fertility clinics and doctors may also exploit the ‘feel good’ factor of doing a kind deed, by convincing prospective donors that they are bringing much joy and happiness to an infertile woman trying to conceive a child.
Payment for donation of unused frozen egg is unethical - UCA News It should be viewed as an undue financial inducement that could potentially trespass on donors’ autonomous decision-making
