Family Limit options
As a licensed sperm bank, we strictly follow national regulations on family limits. In addition to national pregnancy limits, we have set worldwide limits on the number of families per donor. The majority of our donors have a limit of 75 families, but in selected markets (the UK , Ireland and the Netherlands) we now also offer donors with a worldwide limit of 25 families.
For those who prefer an even lower family limit, we have donors who help a smaller number of families.
Donors helping fewer families
If you prefer to limit the number of families further, we offer additional options. You can find these donors by using the filter in the donor search overview and selecting 1, 5, or 15 families. When choosing one of these donors, you purchase a combined solution containing sperm straws, storage, and a pregnancy slot.

Tracking pregnancies
We keep track of the number of families by closely monitoring reported pregnancies. In rare cases, a donor may contribute to more than the family limit. This can happen if a pregnancy is reported late.

Yes, our family limits apply per family, not per child, so you can use the same donor for full siblings.
