Sperm Bank
The Unit also includes a sperm bank for the storage of spermatozoids from patients that wish to preserve their fertility (cancer, vasectomy, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, testicular biopsy…). Additionally, there is a section for the preservation of samples from anonymous donors to be used in reproduction techniques that require sperm donations.
All sperm donors are of legal age, anonymous and subject to constant studies to detect congenital problems and malformations, and sexually transmitted diseases. Donated sperm is selected according to blood group and requests made by couples with regard to physical characteristics.
