If you would like to find an egg donor who looks like you or your partner, you are far from alone. Besides a family history without illnesses, the donor’s physical appearance is the most important factor when choosing a donor, according to our clients.
In our Extended Egg Donor Profiles you get free access to child photos of our egg donors. If you are curious to know how your donor looks like as an adult, you can furthermore buy access to see Adult Photos of selected egg donors at Cryos.
Egg donor profiles with Adult Photos
A limited selection of our donors has Adult Photos available in their profiles. This means that you can purchase access to see one or more pictures of these donors as adults. The donors have provided the photos to help you find the right egg donor.

If you are interested in knowing which donors are currently available with Adult Photos, visit our Egg Donor Search and look for the ‘Adult Photos’-tag or filter the results by ticking ‘Yes’ in the drop-down menu ‘Adult Photos’.
Before you purchase access to see Adult Photos in our donor database, please note that all Cryos donors with Adult Photos have an Extended Profile including a questionnaire, child photo, handwritten message, voice recording and an emotional intelligence profile. Furthermore, they are all ID Release Egg Donors, which means that your child will have the opportunity to access identifying information about the donor at a later stage in life. Some countries do not allow ID Release Donors, and you should make sure that you can use this donor type before purchasing access to the egg donor pictures.
Why choose an egg donor profile with pictures?
Seeing pictures of your egg donor can be of great help and comfort when choosing a donor. The child photos in our Extended Profile provide you with an idea of the donor’s physical traits and with Adult Photos you get to see the donor as a grown-up and examine the donor’s physical traits more closely.
There can be different reasons for choosing a donor with Adult Photos, including:
- You want your child to resemble yourself or your partner. In that case, photos of the donor as an adult give you a better opportunity to choose an egg donor with similar physical traits.
- You prefer to know what physical traits might be passed on to your child. Knowing what the donor looks like might remove some of the insecurities when choosing an egg donor and help you feel more secure in your choice.
- You want to be able to provide your child with as much information as possible about the donor, including pictures of the donor.
The photos of the donors as children are a plus, but the photos of the donors as adults give you a more concrete and real impression. It brought me a personal feeling, which I think is also important in this particular choice. In addition, I personally want to be able to provide as much information as possible to my future child, if it comes to be important for her later. And then in life, it is normal to choose your partner, so why should it be different for this important choice?
