Below you have an index with all the points that we will discuss in this article.

First glance

Once the young person thinks that he / she can meet all the requirements, he / she must make an appointment for the first donation, sexual abstinence of about 4 days is usually advised, so that there is a good seminal volume and the best quality can be evaluated.

First there is a broad interview about your own and family medical history, since no member of the immediate family must have a mental disorder or disease that can be genetically inherited.

Testing and acceptance

Once verified that the history is suitable, it is passed to draw blood to perform all the relevant analyzes and check that the donor is completely healthy.

The staff of the center will give you an analysis boat and will lead the young man to a private room, where he will have to masturbate and ejaculate inside the boat. Subsequently the sample must be delivered to the andrology laboratory, where the seminal quality of the donor will be analyzed in detail.

Process of sperm donation

In addition to checking all the seminal quality parameters typical of a seminogram, such as concentration, morphology and mobility; A freezing test is also performed, verifying that the sperm survive this process well. Donor semen will always be used once thawed, since the sample must remain in quarantine for some time while the results of all the tests guaranteeing that it is healthy are awaited.

Being a donor of semen is complicated, in addition to an excellent state of health it is required to have a quality of semen that is much higher than the average, in fact concentration and mobility values ??are required 5 times higher than the value considered normal. The centers estimate that they accept between 10-20% of all young men who want to be donors.

Weekly donations

After the first visit, in a period of one week the donor will receive a call from the center informing him of whether he has been accepted in the donation program, then the contract is signed.

The visits to the center are usually weekly, although there is flexibility of holidays, vacations, etc.

The most important thing is that the donor of semen complies with the days of sexual abstinence to make a good donation. Therefore, men with an active sex life on weekends are recommended to reserve on Thursdays or Fridays to make a donation.
