Brave & Curious with Dr Lora Shahine

Ep 17 Sperm Donation: Myths vs. Reality from a Sperm Donor


Listen Later

Sperm donation is more common than ever, but it's rare to hear about the donor's motivations and repercussions—until now. Host and reproductive endocrinologist Dr. Lora Shahine meets with long-time sperm donor Zack to learn about his experience discovering, applying, and becoming a frequent donor.

Zack's initial motivation for becoming a sperm donor seems like something out of a movie script: He was a starving student who needed to pay the rent. What started as a solution to make ends meet has grown into a mission to help others build families, and this Baby or Bust episode explores the ins and outs of embracing this much-needed role in the fertility process. From detailing the application process to remembering his own family's reactions, this refreshing discussion will open your eyes to the possibilities that come from sperm donations.
