How Do I Select a Sperm Donor?
In choosing the best suitable sperm donor — intended parents are provided with detailed information, including a health assessment, social profile, and genetic history.
Whether it is education, athleticism, religion, ethnicity, build, complexion, musicality, facial features, or creativity you are interested in, the LIV Sperm Donation Program has the right donor for you. In addition, some donors have personality tests, audio interviews, and staff impressions for you to review.
