I had started writing a response to this when it was first asked, but chose not to post it. Since there isn't much activity here I will post a few things to keep in mind.

For the most part in the United States you cannot sell body parts, you can only sell things that replenish themselves (blood, sperm, etc.). I have a suspicion that many places may treat "donation" and "selling" the same to avoid issues of fraud. How this applies to kidney donations and egg donations I have no idea so there is obviously something I don't know.

My point is that I would make sure you have a competent lawyer that is familiar with this specific subject because I can foresee them writing what you tell them without being fully aware of the special rules that apply to your personal body.

Sorry I can't be more specific or helpful than that, but hopefully it will give you a few extra questions to ask your attorney.
