Share of transfers using a carrier, by patient age (2022)
Dark: ORM · Light: U.S. average
Three-year trend, share of transfers using a carrier
| Patient age | 2020 | 2021 | 2022 | U.S. 2022 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| <35 | 24% | 21% | 19% | 3% |
| 35-37 | 26% | 26% | 26% | 4% |
| 38-40 | 26% | 33% | 32% | 5% |
| >40 | 52% | 47% | 49% | 10% |
| All ages | 32% | 32% | 32% | 5% |
Total transfers (all egg sources, the CDC's denominator): 2020: 1,191 · 2021: 1,257 · 2022: 1,358
Volume estimate = the CDC's reported all-ages share of transfers that used a gestational carrier × the program's total transfers (the transfer count the CDC uses as that share's denominator). Where the CDC suppressed the all-ages share, the age-group shares are used instead and the tile says so.
For egg donation intended parents
Live births per transfer, donor egg cycles (2022)
532 transfers
Nearly all donor-egg transfers today are frozen embryo transfers — the embryo is frozen for genetic testing or scheduling whether the eggs were fresh or banked — so that is the figure to compare.

Surrogacy law in Oregon
Oregon has been one of the most surrogacy-friendly states in the country for decades. As of January 1, 2026, that practice is also formal statute: SB 163 / 2025 Oregon Laws Chapter 592 codifies gestational surrogacy agreements, parentage rules, and surrogate eligibility. Most provisions are already operative; specific birth-record updates follow January 1, 2027. Pre-birth parentage judgments remain electronic and hearing-free, and Oregon welcomes out-of-state and international Intended Parents.
