Would you fly around the world to meet your sperm donor?Adam Hooper contacted me via Facebook after I shared an episode about Unregulated Sperm donation websites in the UK, with Dr Larissa Corda. You can listen to this episode https://www.thefertilitypodcast.com/bewell/ (here ) Adam wanted to talk on the podcast and give his perspective rather than as he put it ' talking non-fictional garbage of what-ifs, dragons and doomsday scenarios. He emailed me further to explain he has two children with his wife. He has heard about a couple of people looking for a sperm donor and although he didn't help them at the time, it planted a seed in his head which eventually led to looking into helping a couple of families out there...  Adam went on to tell me that everyone in his family lives to 90 plus with very few health problems along the way so he felt very comfortable in offering 'a gift' to other people out in the community. In 2015 Adam created the https://www.spermdonorsaustralia.com.au/ (Sperm Donation Australia group), where every man is screened, educated, before being accepted into the group, many are rejected and don't make the cut. He is now writing a book.  You can hear from Adam all about his motivation for doing what he does and he was joined by Johanna who had travelled from Sweden to use Adam's sperm. When we spoke it was during her two-week wait and I've since heard from Johanna that the process didn't work and she is now paying for Adam to come to Europe as she wants to work with him again and she is also going to freeze some of his sperm.  I also include a comment from Dr Kevin Mcleny who is a male fertility doctor at Newcastle Urology and I wanted to share his full comment here 'Whilst Adam has good intentions I am concerned that both donors and especially recipients are exposing themselves to physical, psychological, legal and financial risk.  In licenced centres, the guiding principle is the Welfare of the child and this is not being appropriately considered in an informal donation. Adam mentions that he knows that the children will go to a great home.  This is difficult to know after a few emails and a chat in a coffee shop. It is possible that people for whom parenthood in this way would be a very bad idea could become mothers, without any medical or psychosocial consideration. Conversely, he implies that women who he doesn't think would provide good homes, wouldn't be treated. How does he know this? If it's based on his own experience rather than independent assessment I would say that this is unfair and flawed. He mentions that the donor can be part of the child's life. This should not be a motivation for donation. How does he know that this arrangement will not cause future harm to the recipient and child, as well as to the donor's own family? Why should the child meet the donor at an early stage? (I'm not saying this is wrong, but it would need careful consideration and counselling). He mentions that the donor can be part of the child's life, suggesting a co-parenting arrangement, which is something quite different and shouldn't be mixed up with an altruistic donation. Medical histories and STI screens are meaningless unless they can be independently verified by a 3rd party, eg GP in combination with Fertility Centre and the same applies to genetics testing. Who interprets the significance of a genetic issue found on 23 and me, or a family history detail, as everyone has something? How does he mitigate fraud?  Well-meaning blogs & personal statements will not protect people from legal action and this will happen eventually."

Taryn Cumming (South Africa) joins us and she is one half of the 2 Bumps Same Love team. She and partner Kat Buchanan (New Zealand) who are based in Auckland fell pregnant using an online donor almost simultaneously after finding out they both had a low egg reserve and action was required immediately. Along their way they started creating YouTube content and sharing their journey and creating information guides for others out there to follow. The media got on board with their story also, followed by a German production company, everyone couldn't get enough of these same-sex pregnant mamas to be. It wasn't all smooth sailing though as Taryn faced complications at the birthing table and a fight for survival for the unnamed little baby Ryan at the time created feelings of stress and panic. On top of that Kat's baby was born just 4 days afterward. We hear their story and how they still continue to inspire others as Taryn joins the Sperm Donation New Zealand team as a lead administrator.

Going by the aliases of Pip and Tara from Victoria, Australia. After a relationship spanning 14 years, it was time to discuss having a child together. They used one of the countries biggest fertility clinics, we talk to them about their IVF journey in-depth about the processes of the counseling, the doctors appointments, surgeries along the way (cysts and polyps) , and then finally gaining access of their donor registry. A first cycle success was then to follow, in what was looking like overall a great IVF story. Enter the plot twist. Tara receives a call from the clinic counselor informing them that the donor that they selected has withdrawn consent to use his sperm and as of effect they will destroy their embryos. We roll the emotional rollercoaster of how this has come to be and how this information you are not warned on and that there is a lawyer that has come other cases of this happening and wanting to change the laws. Now left in limbo by their clinic and not knowing what is going on we explore the possibilities. and look at if the clinic should of handle their clients with a bit more duty of care.
