The Hidden Cost of Imported Frozen Eggs vs. Surrogacy4All’s Guaranteed Embryos

In 2025, Intended Parents are increasingly offered imported frozen eggs from countries like Ukraine and Georgia, often through U.S.-based distributors such as OvaGene. At first glance, these eggs seem cheaper than working with U.S. egg donors.

But here’s the truth: while the upfront price looks appealing, the hidden costs, lower success rates, and emotional risks often make imported eggs more expensive in the end.

At Surrogacy4All, we believe families deserve certainty, transparency, and results. That’s why we created our Guaranteed Embryos Program—a safer, physician-led alternative that maximizes success and minimizes stress.

The “Cheap” Promise of Imported Eggs

Advertised Benefits:

• $12K–$18K per frozen batch vs. $25K–$35K for U.S. donors
• No donor travel costs
• Immediate availability

Hidden Costs:

• Lower survival rates during thaw (25–40% loss common)
• Additional IVF cycles required → $15K–$20K each
• Donor screening standards vary by country
• Political instability may affect availability

Result: What starts as a “$15K deal” often becomes $50K–$70K after failed cycles and hidden add-ons.

Risks of Imported Frozen Eggs

Lower Fertilization & Pregnancy Rates

• Fresh donor eggs have success rates of 65–70% per transfer.
• Imported frozen eggs may drop to 30–40%.

Variable Donor Screening

• U.S. FDA requires strict genetic, infectious disease, and psych screening.
• Not all international donors meet these standards.

Emotional Toll

• Multiple failed cycles = heartbreak + financial loss.

Uncertain Supply Chains

• War in Ukraine and instability in Georgia have already disrupted shipments.

Case Study: A Costly Lesson Abroad

One couple purchased frozen eggs imported from Eastern Europe at $16K. After thaw, only 4 eggs survived. Two failed to fertilize. The couple spent $60K on three IVF cycles with no pregnancy.

They later turned to Surrogacy4All’s Guaranteed Embryos Program, which provided ready-to-transfer embryos with a success guarantee. Within 14 months, they were parents.
