Offer the possibility of creating a new life
Like blood donation or organ donation, sperm donation offers the possibility of creating a new life. The contribution of donors to this process is very significant. Without them, a lifetime dream which brings the greatest happiness, the experience of motherhood and fatherhood, could not come true. Sperm donors are special people who, by their offering, contribute to the solution of an important problem of modern society: infertility.
Infertility, as a causative factor of low birth rates, is an international problem linked to the rapid aging of worldwide populations. Sperm donation can be a solution to this problem for infertile women without a partner or couples experiencing male infertility, who have repeatedly failed in assisted reproduction attempts. The process is simple and has multiple benefits.

Screening process
Laboratory tests for sperm donation
Laboratory testing
The process is simple and has multiple benefits for the donor who will become a member of Cryogonia’s donation program.
All candidate sperm donors are submitted to strict and detailed screening, which includes multiple spermatological and haematological tests.
All laboratory tests are performed free of charge for the donors.
Only the candidates whose semen quality exceeds the reference values of internationally recognized methodologies are selected for freezing.
Due to the seasonal variations observed in semen, it is possible that a candidate donor is asked to deliver 2 or 3 control samples, in order to certify whether his semen quality meets the selection criteria.
There is also a possibility that neat semen of good quality might not be adequately recovered post thaw. Since sperm donation requires only frozen semen, the selection obviously includes only samples that produce good recovery of motile spermatozoa after thawing.
