There were 1,912 women who had IVF using a donor egg in 2006, compared to 3,924 in 2016, the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority (HFEA) said.
Amanda Mitcheson, 49, from Doncaster, spent £30,000 on IVF, but without success.
She eventually used an egg donor from the UK and now has a four-year-old son, Max.
