The UK relies on men from other countries to send us their sperm. Figures released in November show more than half of men (52%) newly registered in the UK as sperm donors are actually from overseas 🤯

The UK relies on men from other countries to send us their sperm.And it turns out there are two countries in particular who are predominantly supplying their swimmers: Denmark and the United States.why are the Danes and the Americans happy to provide it?

Others had a health issue that meant they could not donate, some failed a screening test and others did not have enough mobile sperm.Lead author of the study, Allan Pacey, professor of andrology and head of the department of oncology and metabolism at the University of Sheffield, said he hoped the study would help improve recruitment and retention processes.

‘In the UK, you can only become a donor if you agreed to be identifiable and there simply aren’t enough guys in the UK that are willing to do that, or we haven’t managed to tempt them enough, because we haven’t got an advertising system that targets them,’ he said.‘They tend to be older men, men that have completed their own families.‘It relies on individual donors thinking of the idea and then contacting their clinic, which may be miles away from them.

If a British man donates his sperm he should be prepared that any resulting offspring have the right to contact them after turning 18.
