It is the parents prerogative whether or not to discuss the role of donor tissue in their childs life, if and when they feel it is appropriate. In general, our counsellor states the more openly available the information is, the more successful the outcome is for all involved. In Australia it is illegal to buy or sell human tissues including sperm, eggs and embryos.

Yes. All parties involved in donor eggs or sperm must legally undergo counselling sessions with an affiliated counsellor. To be able to use donor eggs or donor sperm from an unknown donor through one of our banks, that donor must have undergone approved counselling and be reflected in their profile in order to be available to purchase and use in Australia.
