SEED: Sperm, Egg and Embryo Donors

By Laura Witjens, Chair

We often get patients wondering why people would donate. Until they’re faced with their infertility it is a question they never have to ask themselves. But once you start this process and feel you are at the mercy of some kind stranger the question “WHY would they do it?” does come up. I’ve written about this in this post as well.

Donors come in all shapes and sizes, from all different backgrounds. I wish I could say from all ethnic backgrounds as well but unfortunately that is not true. South Asian donors we need you!!

What donors do have in common is a desire to help. Men and women who want to make a difference. It can be as simple as that.

Birmingham Women’s Hospital had an Egg Donor Launch recently, check here for more detail, and two of their donors were interviewed for BBC Midlands.

View this wonderful clip and be inspired by these open positive NORMAL women. Don’t just believe what I write, listen to what they say.

They are amazing don’t you think?
