Egg Donation: Understanding Risks & Reproductive Health


Question
Hello, my name is Jessica. I am considering being an egg donor.  I am very afraid of becoming infertile. To have kids is a very precious thing to me. I am afraid I would get an infection or get Ovarian Hyper-stimulation Syndrome or any possible damage done to my reproductive system.

I would like to know any information on the risks of becoming infertile from the process or any insight you may have on it.  I would also greatly welcome extensive explanations.

I am very healthy, I am 21, and I have a BMI of 20.2.  I am in a healhty range for my blood pressure.  I exercise atleast 3 hours a week and and take a considerable amount of pride in keeping myself healthy. I do not smoke or do drugs.  I will greatly appreciate any information or insight given.
