IVF- Are you in favour of sperm/ova donation?

yes i am in favour of doindg do, atleast inthis way people who dont have baby,can get their own baby.

well theres nothing wrong in donating ones eggs/sperms..provided its done in good faith and no monetary or any privledges r involved in that.. its just when u do it to treat some ones infertility ..it becomes a good cause... if this becomes an habitual procedure the it will loose its significance and it will become total commercial...

I am in favour of sperm donation fully. There is no harm in going for test tube fertility. But the one basic condition is that both the partners should understand each other fully. Here mutual understanding is the key to success.

Only foolish people will go in for donation by an unknown owner. All the tendencies of a human being are embossed in a sperm. The resultant product may not be suitable for the environment for which it is created.Heriditary tendencies cannot be changed by cultivation. they remain subdued till the person attains adult hood. It will shiow once the person becomes independant.

it depends on person to person. Idoubt the mother might claim that the child is not his if he gets angry. But, i think it would be a most rewarding gift for the couple to donate the ovum/sperm

I for one would happily donate all of my sperm if only there were beautiful young women begging for it, faces full of it...

I too feel the same like you. I would not go in to carry another man's child when your husband is there. If your partner is ready then why ask another man to come into your marriage.(even if you don't know him, you know you are carrying another man's child).

im favor of it.because nobody want to be widout childrenin the world and moreover as a medico i know we keep ighly secret information of donor and recepient.

I think there are people who really love to have children at all cost because there are some emptiness inside of you if cannot have a baby. IVF I think is a substitute for adopting a baby, atleast half of the baby is from one of the partners. At least there is still a blood relation between the mother and the child than none at all.

No i don't want to have a baby from a stranger's sperm. I would rather get pregnant within a relationship of a man i love, and if by chance my husband is not capable of having a baby i would choose to adopt. Having a baby is a symnbol of love, it is made out of love making. It is inhuman to have a baby from a stanger. We are humans not animals who would just make babies to any male.

Though I have a different opinion, I can understand your friend perfectly. As a childless woman, I sometimes think of IVF as a possibility of having a baby but definitely would not do it if it is not with my husband's sperm. And I tell you also why. It has nothing to do with the husband's rights of fatherhood. When you decide to do such thing it's obvious that you are in love and not thinking of separating. My husband's count is a good one but let us say it was not. I don't have a right to hurt him for life by "borrowing" sperm from someone else. If that was the case I prefer adoption so the baby would neither be mine nor his, I mean biologically. Using donor sperm for me is like telling my husband "I can but you cannot" without actually speaking. What will his feeling be everytime he looks at the child? I hate thinking of what his thoughts will be.

I don't mind it as long as there is no way of it ever complicating the lives of those involved later on. It's good that they have this technology now especially for people who can't conceive on their own.

I disagree with test tube pregnancy or sperm donation, etc. I believe that a person should be created normally. Much better if a person is created with love.

This is really a difficult situaton. It is very difficult to understand the despirate feelings of a woman wanting a baby. On the other hand it is not easy to be a father of a child born from some other person's sperms. Adoption could be a simple way out. So that the baby be, biologically, neither his nor her. But in this case too the child is not born with his sperms, then why not prefer a donor and let her experience child birth which is at the moment her biggest desire. And if he truly loves her, he can appreciate that the baby is, biologically, half their. The pain is at least half relieved and love is at least doubled. Now consider the reverse situation where she is not able to produce ovam and they decide to get a third party ova. Would either of them object? As far as legal right about parenting is considered, they both have equal right as both sperm or ova are provided to a couple not any individual.

My general views is if someone got the children of one or two and they(husband and wife) feel this is enough to get the more children. Then the they gave the sperm/ova. Its the right and correct way without affect the body and their health. If i'm this palce, i should give my sperm to produce the test-tube babies....

I think if people can't have children by themselves then they should be allowed to use donor whatever. I think both parents would retain rights if they split.

i think there are no problem about donation: it's an action of love to other people

i am not in this favour, i am also not comfortable with that , but i am ready for the donation on my own sperm but not ready to get for my one, because i am able to produce child so whats the problem. ill do my wife and make her pregnant. so whats the problem why should i get one. but i am ready to donate my sperm. Regards

in the first place, are you talking about your friend as your future wife? lol! secondly, are you sterile? if not, i think you won't be needing sperm donations to have a child. personally it is okay if you undergo this procedure, provided both the man and the woman agreed to do such. there is nothing wrong with it. both will still spend 9 months of preparation, there a sense of responsibility and love for the baby is created. not hate, i believe. this power of science just gave chance for couples who cannot bear their fruits to have at least one. this gave them hope, a hope for a happy and fruitful life that many couples do not have at the moment. ^_^

hi actually INFERTILITY can be due to any partner. Just take it like this if there is some problem in you and your wife wants to get pregnant then what you will do??? sometimes females want to get pregnant like crazy so at that time you have to go for IVF for her happiness. So i think nothing is wrong in that. Bye
