100 Women: Inside the Hidden World of Egg Donation
Episode 6 of 10
Cagil Kasapoglu travels to Cyprus to meet the women donating their eggs to help others to conceive.
Fertility tourism is on the rise, in part because in countries like Turkey and many part of the Middle East, third-party reproductive assistance is illegal. And Cyprus has become a popular destination. Shorter waiting list and cheaper costs are attracting many couples from all around the world. And young women are lured into donating their eggs mainly via social media ads, agents and clinics with promises of hefty sums of money offered as compensation. Cagil Kasapoglu travels to Cyprus to find out more and to meet the women donating their eggs to help others to conceive.
