What Information is Included in Our Sperm Donor Profiles?

At Cascade Cryobank, we are extremely selective in who we accept as sperm donors. By the time we have a donor’s samples ready to enter our catalog, we have evaluated them for a lot of information. The goal is to find a great collection of sperm donors that all pass our stringent testing and evaluations, and to have a good selection of sperm from people with diverse backgrounds.

So, by the time we enter their information into our catalog, we know a lot about them. Here’s a walk-through of our donor catalog and what to expect when you visit it:

Find a Donor Page

When you first arrive at our donor catalog (visit this link) you will be greeted by some initial information. This includes:

  • A baby photo of the donor, because often the children look like one of the genetic parents, especially when younger.
  • Whether they’ve opted in to Early Disclosure, Open ID, or if they are Anonymous donors.
  • Physical characteristics, such as height, weight, eye color, hair color and type, complexion, ethnicity, country of residence, and education background.

Here’s a screenshot from our donor catalog that illustrates what it looks like:

Entering the Donor’s Individual Page

Once you see a donor that catches your eye, click on it and you will be taken to their full listing. Here’s a summary of what you will find:

  • More photos, if the donor provided them.
  • An area for options to purchase the vials.
  • The same traits and characteristics as were on the previous page, plus a few more (such as blood type).
  • An essay written by the donor about his family background, childhood, education, hobbies, passions, and why he chose to be a donor.
  • Information about genetics, taken from all the testing we did prior to adding the donor to our catalog.
  • Some general information about the donor’s personality type.

Here is a screenshot from one of the listings:

We have tried to be as detailed as possible when putting together our donor profiles. It is because we know how important it is for you to have all the information you need to make the best choice for your family! The more information you have, the easier it will be for you to make your final decision.  For more information, check out our donor catalog here: https://cascadecryobank.com/find-a-donor/
