MAR donation and transplant activity

These documents have been produced by EUROCET with the data collected by Competent Authorities for Medically Assisted Reproduction (MAR) from EU Member States (and some other Extra EU countries).

The following report shows calculations regarding the whole donation‐processing‐distribution-transplantation process in the field of MAR since 2008.

The collection of MAR data has significantly changed over the years. Up until 2019, Eurocet collected data from two years prior, but since then the data requested is focused only on donation, leaving out procedures such as FET and all data on results. Therefore, the data collected now refers to one year prior.

 The MAR data is divided into seven sections:

• one for collecting data on partner donation performed through IUI and IVF/ICSI
• one on non‐partner donation activities using sperm or oocytes or embryos/zygotes
• one on non‐partner sperm donation performed through IUI, IVF/ICSI
• one on non‐partner oocyte donation performed through IVF/ICSI
• one on non‐partner oocyte and sperm donation performed through IVF/ICSI
• one on preservation of reproductive capacity (for social and medical reasons)
• and a last one on distribution and exchange of non‐partner gametes/embryos (commercialisation) using sperm, oocytes and embryos/zygotes
