Sperm Banks in the US - The Unregulated State of Affairs

from Love, Money & the Law · host Cindy Hide

The unregulated state of affairs of sperm banks in the U.S. leaves recipients who conceive through Invitro Fertilization with many unanswered questions and a lifetime of doubts. Aside from a contagious disease test required by the FDA, no more information is required of donors, leaving families no choice but to play a high risk game of "trust the registry." Listen carefully for the valuable hidden issues you may not have ever considered before moving forward with this method of having a child. You'll be glad you did!
