Restricted:
This donor is ONLY available to
recipients living OUTSIDE Oregon
and Southern Washington. We limit the use of all our
donors in our local geographical population. The number of
families that have achieved one or more pregnancies by each donor are tracked and when they
reach a specific number we discontinue selling their vials to the
surrounding area. This statistically assures that children conceived by
different families using the same donor do not interact socially in their
reproductive future. (An important exception
is made for those families seeking a sibling to a previous child from
the same donor.)
Preg These donors
have achieved at least one pregnancy.
Donors at the top of the list are too new to have
a pregnancy reported yet. This usually takes about 6 months. Some of the other donors are
rarely requested due
to their special ethnic origin.
