The eligibility criteria for recipients of sperm donation can vary depending on the regulations and guidelines set by different countries and fertility clinics. Generally, the criteria for potential recipients may include:
Infertility: Sperm donation is often considered for
individuals or couples who are unable to conceive naturally due to male
infertility, absence of a male partner, or certain medical conditions that make
conception difficult.
Same-sex couples: Sperm donation can be an option for
same-sex female couples who wish to have a biological child.
Single women: Single women who desire to have a child and do
not have a male partner may also choose to use sperm donation.
Genetic disorders: In some cases, couples or individuals may
opt for sperm donation to avoid passing on certain genetic disorders or
conditions that could be inherited.
Other medical conditions: Some individuals may have medical
conditions or circumstances that make conception challenging or risky, and they
may choose sperm donation as a means of achieving pregnancy.
