Thanks!
agree John Speese : I agree with ovum donation, it's clear from the context that human ova are meant, and can an animal really be a donor? Or would you say "source" if an animal were meant? After all, they don't have a choice.

agree Cetacea : with Chetan and John.

Thank you
agree Bettina Grieser Johns : I don't think you need the "human" in front of "ovum "or "egg", as the previous sentence makes it clear that we're talking about humans.

thanks monbuckland
neutral Kim Metzger : Ovum donation is precise enough in this context because the fact that it's about humans has already been mentioned.
