Abstract

This document provides the latest recommendations for the evaluation of potential sperm, oocyte, and embryo donors, as well as their recipients, incorporating recent information about optimal screening and testing for sexually transmitted infections, genetic diseases, and psychological assessments. This revised document incorporates recent information from the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the US Food and Drug Administration, and the American Association of Tissue Banks, with which all programs offering gamete and embryo donation services must be thoroughly familiar, and replaces the document titled "Recommendations for gamete and embryo donation: a committee opinion," last published in 2013.

Keywords: Sperm; donor insemination; donor screening; oocyte; quarantine.
