    She sold her eggs. Correctly phrasing it should be she sold her collected eggs as a donor. Using the word donation implies a different meaning in this context.

      Using the word donation implies a different meaning in this context.

      The word donation means something different in other contexts, but not in this one. Someone who sells their eggs is an egg donor. The procecess is egg donation.

      In this context, donation does not imply no financial remuneration as it does in other contexts.
