Cases of egg and sperm donations

Description:For egg donors, a registry could track completed egg donation cycles to reduce the risk of donors going through more cycles than is considered safe. There are, therefore, short waiting times for this type of assisted reproduction technique. After this time the tests are repeated in order to ensure that the donor was not in the early stages of an infection at the time of donation. The HFEA intends to make donor-assisted conception easier by reducing the chronic shortages of donated eggs and sperm. Only in female couples undergoing the Shared Motherhood technique can one receive the eggs of the other. The prospective parent cannot at any point choose the physical features or gender of their future baby, as this is prohibited. The rise of direct-to-consumer genetic testing increases the likelihood of donor-conceived children finding their genetic parents, whether the donor wants that to happen or not.
