Anyone pursued pregnancy through donor egg following OVCA & chemo?

Has anyone out there who kept their uterus pursued a pregnancy via egg donation following OVCA? I am Stage 3, 6mths out of completing chemo with nice single digit CA125 at both 3mth checks. Now I am trying to get on with life including thinking about the family we always wanted. Unlike many on this forum I haven't managed to have a family before getting this dreadful disease as I was only 31 when diagnosed. Now my options are donor egg or adoption as we didn't have the time/option of collecting and freezing my own eggs at the time of diagnosis,surgery and chemo. I'm considering donor egg but I have so many questions about this and was wondering if someone has been through this before me. Would the hormones of pregnancy make a recurrence more likely? Can the scar from laparotomy stand a pregnancy?
