The Split program

Freeze your eggs for free and store them for ten years when you donate to another family.

Why choose the Split program?

Qualifying for Split

We’d love for Split to be available to everyone, but to keep the process safe and in line with FDA and ASRM guidelines for egg donation, you’ll need to meet the following criteria to qualify:

  • Have both ovaries
  • Be between ages 21-33
  • Have a BMI less than 30 (for medication safety and procedure effectiveness)
  • Be physically and emotionally healthy with no genetic or reproductive disorders
  • Be a non-smoker and abstain from all recreational drugs

Not right for you? Learn more about our Keep program.

How does the process work?

The Split program involves several steps from application through egg retrieval:

1

Getting started: Apply & meet our team

Take our one-minute quiz to see if you pre-qualify, then complete a full application. You’ll speak with our team to get your questions answered before you move forward — no commitment yet.

2

Screening: Confirming your eligibility

We assess your ovarian reserve, genetics, and overall health to confirm you’re a good candidate for donation. You’ll be paired with a Member Advocate who guides you through every step from here.

3

Cycling: Freezing & storing your eggs

Over a 10–14 day process, you’ll take medication to mature multiple eggs, then undergo a short retrieval procedure — medications, monitoring, and 10 years of storage all covered. Many donors opt to complete two cycles to have more eggs frozen for the future.

4

Matching: Sharing your eggs with intended parents

We match you with a family who can’t conceive on their own. We’ll honor your matching preferences and handle everything — vetting, logistics, and support throughout. You’ll have a dedicated Member Advocate with you the whole way.

98% of Split members say that regardless of their own family-building journey, they’re glad to have participated in the Split program.

“I’m very career-driven and I don’t see myself having kids anytime soon. At the same time, the pressure around fertility timing can create a lot of anxiety as you get older. After freezing my eggs with Cofertility, even if my timeline shifts or my life circumstances change, I feel a sense of peace knowing I have options. I’m incredibly grateful for.”

“Cofertility helps solve a common problem: our eggs are healthiest in our 20s, but freezing them is too expensive. It feels amazing to help another family while also investing in my future. I am more confident moving into my 30s knowing I have eggs stored if I need them. I’m so grateful I had the opportunity, and recommend it to anyone who wants that safety net.”

“I had been thinking about freezing my eggs when I discovered Cofertility. I was intrigued by the idea of donation and knew I wanted my eggs to go to a couple of color and/or a same-sex couple. When I met the intended parents over Zoom, I was struck by how kind and genuine they were. They made me feel confident in my decision to donate."

“I love Cofertility’s focus on the families they work with, and their passion for fertility education. I love that I’m able to freeze eggs for myself while also giving to others. This meaningful act is something that I’m honored to do and thinking about what this could lead to floods me with happiness.”

Cofertility’s Split program was truly a no-brainer for me. There is something incredibly beautiful about a single process helping two families plan for their futures at the same time. I felt deeply honored to be part of something that creates so much hope and possibility for others, while also giving me peace of mind and confidence about my own path forward.

"Physicians are often forced to sacrifice their most fertile years for their training, and that becomes such a huge source of anxiety for so many female doctors. This is an opportunity to preserve some of your fertility, while doing something amazing for another family."
Split member

Hannah

“If I can assist in bringing pure joy into another family’s life, I’d do it willingly, with a full heart. I watched my best friend go through a miscarriage, only to find out she wouldn’t be able to have kids of her own. It was one of the most heartbreaking experiences I’ve ever witnessed. I vowed that if I could ever help someone in that capacity, I would.”

Lauren

“After a breakup, I was worried about my future and knew I wasn’t ready to settle down. I looked into egg freezing, but as a public education teacher, it felt financially out of reach. Then I found Cofertility, and it was a no-brainer. Not only was I able to freeze my eggs for free, but as a teacher, I couldn’t think of a better way to help another family.”

“The entire process with Cofertility was smooth, easy, and far less intimidating than I expected. I chose to complete two cycles and felt fully supported throughout. I appreciated having total control and knowing I was part of an ethical program that helps make egg freezing more accessible. I was also thrilled to match with and be able to help a same-sex couple."
Split member

Mary

“As someone who constantly looks to give and support where I can, this felt like an unparalleled opportunity. I want the option to have children, but I am just not ready yet. It’s incredible that I can help other couples who may not be able to conceive.”

Jamie

"Being able to take proactive steps for my future has brought me a deep sense of peace. I don’t think I would have frozen my eggs if not for Cofertility and the guidance they provided. The opportunity to help another family grow was incredibly motivating and Cofertility did an amazing job making a complex, emotional process as supportive as possible."

"Working with Cofertility was like having a concierge guiding me through the egg freezing process handling appointments, navigating insurance, and taking so much of the mental load off my plate. Egg donation is a very personal decision, but if you feel drawn to it, Cofertility is an exceptional place to take that step. It’s a deeply rewarding experience, and the support you receive along the way is unmatched."
