Can you pick your own sperm donor?
While there are many criteria for choosing a donor, it’s impossible to say which is the most important because that is entirely up to you. In fact, there isn’t a wrong choice – and there are hundreds of quality donors to choose from – so our selection process allows you to decide what’s best for you.
How did you choose your sperm donor?
One of the most important things when choosing a sperm donor is deciding between an anonymous or known donor. Some donors want to be known by the mother and child, while others only want to be known by the mother. Known donors offer a level of transparency about family history and other important information.
What should I look for when choosing a sperm donor?
Check the legislation in your country.
Can you see a photo of your sperm donor?
Right. To preserve donor privacy, sperm bank clients generally are not permitted to view donor photos or get too much personal information about donors (though some donors provide hand-written essays that can be analyzed).
What disqualifies you from being a sperm donor?
Having a sexually transmitted disease will disqualify you from sperm donor programs. At FCC, we test potential donors for HIV, chlamydia, gonorrhea, hepatitis, syphilis, and more before they are allowed to donate. You have a genetic condition or other medical concerns.
Can you see a picture of your sperm donor?
Yes, California Cryobank does offer childhood photos for selected donors. To see if a donor has a baby photo available, please consult the appropriate column on our donor catalog, or use the baby photo field in our online power search.
How do I find a sperm donor that looks like my husband?
Fairfax Cryobank’s exclusive Fairfax FaceMatch® technology allows you to find that ideal sperm donor lookalike that looks just like your partner, family member, friend, or celebrity.
How much money do you get for donating sperm?
How much will I earn for my sperm samples? Donors earn $70 for each donation ($50 at the time of donation, and $20 when the sample is released). Healthy men are able to earn up to $1,000 per month.
What is the price of sperm?
A vial now costs Rs 2,000 to Rs 5,000, up from Rs 1,200 to Rs 1,500 five years ago, say doctors. Samples from donors with a medical or engineering degree go for a higher price. One vial lasts one cycle of in-vitro fertilization (IVF), and usually two to three cycles are required for the couple to conceive.
