Frequently asked questions about being a sperm donor

<h2><span class="display-3">Frequently asked questions about being a sperm donor&nbsp;</span></h2>
<h3><span class="display-4">Is it difficult to become a sperm donor?</span></h3>
<p>Becoming a sperm donor is difficult. Only about 5-10% of donor applicants at Cryos end up becoming sperm donors. The reason it is challenging lies in the extensive examination of the donors' mental and physical health, which eliminates many applicants. Additionally, many potential donors are excluded based on sperm quality, which needs to be very high for the sperm to withstand freezing and thawing for use in fertility treatment.</p>
<h3><span class="display-4">How many children does a sperm donor have?</span></h3>
<p>The number of children a donor is a biological parent of varies since different countries have different regulations regarding the number of children per donor. In Denmark, a sperm donor can contribute to a maximum of 12 different families. Therefore, the donor can help bring more than 12 children into the world if they are born within the same family.</p>
<h3><span class="display-4">Do sperm donors receive payment?</span></h3>
<p>No, a sperm donor does not receive payment, but sperm donors are compensated for their inconvenience and transportation. The compensation varies from person to person, but as a sperm donor, you are guaranteed a minimum amount of 200 DKK for each donation. A sperm donor can receive up to 500 DKK for one donation.</p>
<h3><span class="display-4">Can I donate sperm anonymously?</span></h3>
<p>Yes, at Cryos, it is possible to&nbsp;<a href="/en-gb/dk-donor/donate-sperm/how-to/sperm-donor-process/donor-anonymity-and-future-contact/" target="_top">donate sperm anonymously</a>. As a sperm donor, you can choose to be a Non-ID Release donor, which means that children born through your sperm donations cannot obtain any identifying information about you from Cryos at any point.
