Sperm Donor in China

China faces sperm donor shortage
China does not have enough sperm donations to fulfil demand, according to state media reports.

One of the country's five sperm banks, in southern Guangdong province, says that in the last 18 months more than 50 couples a month have sought help.

But only about 350 donations have been received from men with the proper health clearance, the China Daily said.

A medical consultant at the Guangdong sperm bank said many men were too shy to come forward and donate.

This is what they usually do at the fertility center for sperm donations in China. The first step in the procedure is for the donor’s sperm to be collected and examined, with the name and status of the donor being checked. After the lab examination, the sperm is frozen and given a code number while it awaits an HIV check. Roughly six months later, when the testing process is completed, the identities of acceptable donors are enciphered.
The sperm is then ready to be selected and used, with reference being made to blood types and facial and bodily features.
