egg harvesting

eggs are collected through the vagina under ultrasound guidance. It implies that there are 2 parties, a donor and a recipient, whereas Tania's solution retrieval is the actual translation of the concept, but as there is no context, I thought it might be of use to add another suggestion. I may be met with peer disagreement but that is the risk one takes on proz!
