What Is Sperm Donation?

A safe path with screened donor sperm

Sperm donation is the procedure in which — when the intended father has no sperm at all (azoospermia) or the sperm are not sufficient for fertilisation — the intended mother's eggs are fertilised in the laboratory with screened donor sperm obtained from licensed sperm banks that operate to international standards, and the resulting high-quality embryo is transferred to the uterus.

Half of the baby's genetic make-up comes from the intended mother; she carries the pregnancy and experiences its full hormonal and emotional bond. During donor selection, the intended father's physical characteristics — such as height, weight, skin tone, eye and hair colour — along with blood type are taken as the basis. All donors are healthy individuals who have passed comprehensive infection and genetic screening.

This treatment, which is not performed in Turkey, is carried out in North Cyprus within a legal framework and under the supervision of the health authorities; TRNC legislation also allows single women to be treated with donor sperm. For the medical terms you will encounter along the way, you can browse our IVF glossary.

Who Is It Suitable For?

If one of the situations below applies to you, sperm donation may be the right option:

  • Azoospermia: cases where sperm cannot be retrieved even with TESE
  • Severe abnormalities in sperm count, motility or morphology
  • Repeated TESE and IVF failures
  • Carriage of a serious genetic condition in the intended father
  • Permanent loss of sperm production after chemotherapy or radiotherapy
  • Single women and couples (within the legal framework in the TRNC)

Ask a Question
Is sperm donation legal in Turkey?

Sperm donation is not performed in Turkey; in North Cyprus, however, it is carried out within a legal framework and under the supervision of the health authorities. For this reason, both couples and single women from Turkey and many other countries choose Cyprus for this treatment. The entire legal process is managed by our clinic.

Where is the donor sperm sourced from?

Donor sperm is sourced from licensed sperm banks that operate to international standards. All donors undergo comprehensive infection screening, genetic testing and health assessments; only samples that meet strict quality criteria are used in treatment.

Who will a baby born through sperm donation resemble?

Half of the baby's genetic make-up comes from the intended mother. During donor selection, the intended father's physical characteristics such as height, weight, skin tone, eye and hair colour, along with blood type, are taken as the basis, so that the baby resembles the family. The uterine environment of the mother carrying the pregnancy also directly influences the baby's development.

I have been diagnosed with azoospermia; is donation needed straight away?

No. In azoospermia, surgical methods such as TESE are first used to try to retrieve sperm from the testicles; for many patients this makes IVF with their own sperm possible. Where no sperm can be found with TESE, sperm donation becomes a safe and effective option.

How long does treatment take, and how many days are spent in Cyprus?

Because the preparation medications can be used in your own country under a doctor's supervision, the stay required in Cyprus is generally 5-7 days. Egg collection, fertilisation and embryo transfer are completed within this period; travel and accommodation planning is arranged by our team.

Is donor information confidential, and how are prices determined?

Full confidentiality is fundamental in donation programmes; the donor and the family can never identify one another, and all data is protected by law. The treatment fee varies according to the scope of the programme, any additional methods and your accommodation preference; at the first consultation you are given a clear and transparent quote covering every item.
