What our donors say

“Becoming a sperm donor is a commitment, but overall, one of the best things I’ve ever done. I found this process even more rewarding than I expected it to be. By becoming a sperm donor, I’ve had the chance to help people start new lives as families, created a link with future generations, and learnt a lot about myself in the process.”

Frequently Asked Questions Explore more

In the UK, sperm donation is voluntary, and you will not be paid for your donations. Instead you are allowed to receive compensation of up to £45 per clinic visit which is the legal limit set by our regulator the HFEA, to cover any expenses associated with donating, such as travelling to our sperm bank.

You’ll start to receive this after your medical screening and counselling, and will then get compensation every time you call in to donate. Each time you’ll be able to receive £35 of your expenses, with £10 being accrued, which can be all be paid to you after your final screening when all your sperm is available for treatment use.

Here at Semovo, you must have blood and urine tests to check that your sperm does not have a negative health impact on the person who is using your sperm or the baby. We test for HIV, Hepatitis, STIs and various genetic conditions.

Every sperm donation you give is quality checked and then frozen in liquid nitrogen. It’s stored in our laboratory until a patient has chosen to use your sperm to have a baby. Which then your sperm is thawed and thoroughly checked again, and prepared for fertility.
