Who has pregnancies? Since the beginning of the donor program in 1990, all our European donors have had reported pregnancies.
We've only just released the first donations from our American group, and Monty and Irwin are the first donors to result in pregnancies. Pregnancies related to all of our U.S. donors will be indicated in the donor list, as they occur.Please remember to report your own pregnancy for our important birth tracking. You can inform us anonymously since the only things we need to know are the name of the donor and your zip code.
Known or Anonymous donor?At Cryos, many of our donors prefer to retain complete anonymity, signing a contract that does not allow us to reveal their identities to any one, for any reason. But a growing number of our donors have elected to participate in our new Known Donor program. Known Donors agree to allow Cryos to reveal their personal information – name, birth date, full profile and contact information – to adults conceived using their donor sperm. This information can be released to the offspring when he or she turns 18, upon written request.
Please note that this information will not be released to anyone else, and no personal or contact details for the offspring will be revealed to the donor. Of course, offspring who obtain contact information for their donor may choose not to make contact, and a donor located through the Known Donors program cannot be required to meet any offspring, but many donors who have chosen to participate like the idea that their offspring will have access to genetic details and other information not available to those conceived through the more typical anonymous donor procedure. A donor’s participation in the Known Donor program is indicated on his extended profile and other appropriate areas throught the Cryos web site.
