Important Donor Information

We have registered a condition in relation to the donor you have selected. Information about this condition can be accessed below. Before you read it we would like to inform you that the information might contain explicit details about the condition.

Our decision to make this information available is based on our deep belief in the importance of being transparent about conditions, implying that important information is not withheld from the individuals related to the donor. On the other hand, we also acknowledge that every individual has the right not to know and to stop reading before being confronted with the information. Therefore, please take a minute to consider your choice carefully before continuing.

Not all conditions are hereditary. However, it is a fact that every human being carries a number of DNA mutations which can be associated with various disorders or conditions. If the condition described in relation to a specific donor turns out to be hereditary, this information could potentially have a significant impact on the life of individuals genetically related to the donor as well as their family members. When you have acquired this knowledge, you might have to inform family members, including sharing information about the advantages and disadvantages associated with the condition. However, it is important to remember, that a genetic or hereditary disease in a donor does not necessarily mean, that donor conceived children are affected.

If you choose to use donor sperm from this donor we strongly recommend that you seek genetic counselling. Cryos is not able to provide advice on genetic issues. Please also check if the clinic where you are receiving treatment accepts donors with conditions.

Publication of the information you are about to access is prohibited, and we disclaim any responsibility if the information is published. The information may be used for assessment by relevant health professionals in connection with the use of the donor in question.

By clicking Continue you confirm that you are of legal age and that you understand and accept the above responsibility and information.
