An oocyte donor program was established at the Women's Medical Pavilion, Dobbs Ferry, New York, in 1987 for women lacking normal ovarian function. The oocytes were donated voluntarily in stimulated cycles by women undergoing laparoscopic sterilization. If the donors agreed to use ovulation-induction agents and be monitored, they were compensated for their time and inconvenience. Between Nov 15, 1987, and Feb 15, 1988, 194 laparoscopic sterilizations were performed. Only 41 women (21%) met certain of the eligibility criteria. Of the remaining group, only five (12%) agreed to participate. The preliminary results suggest that tubal ligation patients are reluctant to donate oocytes despite enthusiastic counseling, the relatively small risks involved and offers of financial compensation.
