Counselling

Before starting any donation process, you have a short call with one of our specialist fertility counsellors. This is important, as they will explore the emotional implications of sperm donation with you. It’s also a great opportunity to ask about non-clinical aspects of sperm donation and ensure you’re happy to proceed.

Will I be paid for my donation?

We’re often asked how much you get paid for donating sperm in the UK. Sperm donation is ultimately an act of charity, although the HFEA allows us to reimburse you up to £35 per donation for your time. It is illegal to pay donors more than their reasonable expenses in the UK.

How often can you donate sperm in the UK?

Sperm donation in the UK is governed not by the amount or frequency of donations, but by the number of families created as a result of your donation. Your donation can be used to create no more than 10 families, although you can specify fewer should you prefer to do so.

At what age can you donate sperm in the UK?

Sperm donors are usually between the ages of 18 and 45, but in certain cases a clinic may allow donors that are older than 45. If you’re unsure whether you could be eligible to donate, please get in touch with us.
