It would take just 0.01% of the UK’s fertile population to supply the current demand yet egg donors remain incredibly scarce. So what holds women back from agreeing to do it?

To find out Sheila is joined by twice egg donor, Sharon West, Professor of Bioethics, John Harris and by Professor Brian LiebermanMedical Director of Manchester Fertility Services.
