Embryo Donation in Cyprus IVF Hospital
About the clinic
Embryo donation at Cyprus IVF Hospital in Famagusta, North Cyprus, typically runs between $8,800 and $15,900. The program is led by Dr. Serap Kağan, who has over 30 years of experience and was the first certified female IVF specialist in North Cyprus. This procedure helps couples with both male and female infertility or those with recurrent IVF failures using anonymous donors.
Advanced Laboratory Methods
The hospital uses high-precision tools to help improve outcomes. These include the MIRI time-lapse incubator for continuous embryo monitoring and IMSI sperm selection at 6,000x magnification. Specialists also use ZyMōt microfluidic sperm selection and EmbryoGlue to help embryos attach to the uterus. In some cases, Calcium Ionophore is added to help activate eggs after fertilization. These technologies help the clinic maintain high safety standards, backed by its ISO 9001 and ISO 27001 certifications.
Embryo Donation Packages
Patients can choose from three main tiers based on their specific needs and the number of blastocysts they want to reach:
- Classic Package: Around $8,800. This includes the standard treatment and a guarantee of at least two blastocysts.
- Plus Package: Around $9,700. It covers IMSI and ZyMōt sperm selection, EmbryoGlue, and a four-blastocyst guarantee.
- Premium Package: Around $10,800. This adds time-lapse monitoring and covers medications until the day of transfer. It guarantees at least six blastocysts.
The Treatment Process
The process starts with donor selection. Egg donors are aged 21–31 and undergo genetic and infectious disease screening. Sperm comes from accredited banks with full testing. After egg retrieval and fertilization, embryos grow for five to six days. Dr. Serap Kağan or Dr. İçten Balık Kıvançlı then performs the transfer, placing up to three embryos. A blood pregnancy test follows 12 days later. A stay in Cyprus can last from 6 to 21 days depending on the chosen protocol.
Expert Care in North Cyprus
Cyprus IVF Hospital is the first in North Cyprus to earn ISO 9001 accreditation and is recognized by the European Fertility Society. With a 4.7/5 rating from over 150 reviews, the facility is known for its donor network, which allows patients to start treatment without a waiting list. Dr. İçten Balık Kıvançlı brings over 10 years of experience to the reproductive medicine team, supporting the high success rates recorded at the facility.
