Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on Whatsapp

The University of Ibadan in Oyo State has issued a stark warning regarding the increasing number of its female students resorting to egg donation as a means to earn money.

While acknowledging that egg donation offers a path to parenthood for individuals and couples facing infertility, the University Health Service has emphatically stated that it should not be viewed as a reliable income source or a casual “side hustle” for students due to significant health risks of egg donation.

Reports from SaharaReporters have shown the medical procedures involved in human egg donation, which necessitate the use of hormonal medications to stimulate the ovaries.

This process, while crucial for successful egg retrieval, carries considerable health risks for egg donors. The University Health Service detailed potential complications, including abdominal pain, breast tenderness, bloating, and mood swings.

More alarmingly, they cautioned that severe egg donation side effects can include the potentially life-threatening Ovarian Hyperstimulation Syndrome (OHSS).
