A well-known complication in oocyte donation (OD) pregnancy is preeclampsia. Here, we present a 31-year-old woman, pregnant after OD. She conceived by the reception of the oocyte from her partner (ROPA) and sperm from a sperm donor. She developed preeclampsia with severe features, necessitating caesarean delivery at 29 weeks' gestation due to deterioration of her clinical condition. Admission at the intensive care unit postpartum was necessary, because of recurrent postpa rtum eclampsia and administration of high dose magnesium sulphate for convulsion prophylaxis. This case illustrates the importance of preconception counselling for patients who are considering to conceive by OD and double gamete donation. In this specific case an alternative way to conceive was available. However, ROPA was preferred as part of shared lesbian motherhood. The risk of complications in the subsequent pregnancy has led to an alternative decision to accomplish a second pregnancy.
