Artificial fertilization is strictly regulated in China. Since 2006, the National Health and Family Planning Commission has ruled that only women receiving artificial fertilization can donate redundant eggs. And eggs from a single donor can be given to no more than 5 married women; single women are excluded. This does not exclude that there is a black market, and illegal agencies try to procure, on behalf of wealthy customers, "pretty" eggs.
Announcements on university bulletin boards, but above all online, are looking for young, intelligent and above all good-looking donors, sometimes also specifying their height, which must not be less than 160 centimeters, and skin, which is as light as possible. Clients pay 40 to 80 yuan (5 to 10 euros) but donors receive only a fraction of that amount, the rest is pocketed by the agency.
