日本首次建立了一家私立卵子捐献银行。该公司已于本周二开始接受卵子捐献，旨在建立一家“卵子银行”。

A private-sector ovum donation bank has been established in Japan for the first time.

The Oocyte Donation Network requires egg donors² for assisted reproduction purposes and has 20 women who cannot conceive children registered as prospective³ recipients⁵, TBS reported. The endeavor, started by families and medical professionals, is the first such endeavor by a private-sector group in Japan.

The network consists of doctors specializing in fertility treatment and patients' representatives. Network representatives told a news conference that recipient⁴ registration⁶ lists are closed for the time being, TBS reported.

Although donors' identities will not be made public, the company has stated that a precondition to donation is agreeing to give the child access to the donor¹ mother's real name and address. Donors are currently unpaid⁷; however, the network says it may consider compensating⁸ donors if none are found within a year.

Recipients are also asked to agree to cover any potential medical costs resulting from adverse⁹ health effects in donors resulting from the donation procedure.

TBS reported that so far, five private institutions specializing in fertility treatment have been named as associates of the network and will carry out egg harvesting from donors as well as in vitro fertilization using the donated eggs and sperm¹⁰ from the husband of the recipient family.
