Creative Conception, Inc has been helping people build their families through Egg Donation and Surrogacy for 26 years; our Team of knowledgeable staff is comprised of women who have all been Egg Donors, Surrogates or Intended Parents. We’ve traveled the road of infertility on both sides of the journey so we can speak first-hand to helping you become a parent through both Egg Donation and Surrogacy.

When you partner with Creative Conception, Inc, our Team can provide you referrals to fertility clinics/physicians, reproductive attorneys and other professionals that may be needed in your journey.

Both Intended Parents and Donors have choices on the level of communication and the type of relationship they’d like to have. Please see the definitions below describing each type of Donor arrangement.

Known Donation

  • Describes an arrangement where the Intended Parents and the Donor have an existing relationship. The Donor could be a friend, sibling, family member, etc.

Open Donation

  • Describes an arrangement where the Intended Parents and the Donor agree to exchange full names and contact information; they can also meet and have a phone/video call.
  • The level of communication will vary after the initial interaction; some relationships may continue to grow whereas others will leave the door open to communicate only if medically necessary or if the resulting child wishes to know more.

Semi-open Donation

  • Describes an arrangement where Intended Parents and the Donor don’t know each other’s identities but may exchange first names and have restricted communication facilitated by an Agency, donor registry or an attorney.
  • In general, Intended Parents and the Donor don’t communicate beyond this initial interaction and don’t exchange full contact information.

Anonymous Donation:

  • Describes an arrangement where the Intended Parents and the Donor do not know each other’s identities and don’t intend to contact one another in the future.
  • Aliases such as “Intended Mother,” “Intended Father,” and “Donor ID Number/First Name” may be used in the written agreement between both parties.

More Egg Donor Questions?

See our FAQs

Identifying a surrogate is different. You will be given a profile, which consists of a medical history, personal motivational, and pictures of a surrogate. If you decide the profile is a good potential, you will meet with her and her husband/partner, along with a CCI representative.

Couples that do not live in California must still meet with the surrogate before moving ahead.
