Media Opportunties 7 years, 9 months agoHi everyone,
I’m a journalist at women’s website Refinery29 (https://www.refinery29.com/en-gb) and am writing a sensitive article about what it’s like to have been conceived by egg donation and not known your biological mother growing up.

Miscellaneous 7 years, 10 months agoIt sounds like my donor wasn’t part of a program through a university, clinic, or sperm bank. There’s no donor ID or any other records. Is there any way to find possible donor siblings (aside from DNA testing)?
-
I’ve done Ancestry DNA and uploaded to FTDNA, GEDmatch, and MyHeritage. I plan to do 23andme next year.
-
No, there isn’t another way. With no info, DNA testing is your only current route. Sorry!

Miscellaneous 8 years, 2 months agoI have done 23andme, ancestry.com. I found my donor thru 23andme. I have his initals and location where he donated (washington university in st louis). I have tried messaging him with no luck. I have no idea what to do now. Any suggestions?
-
Hi Erick, You can try triangulating matches and seeing who you match him with. If you can Identify another shared family member and do some basic genealogy it is not hard from there to match him to his identity. You can then, with a name search his contact information fairly easily.

Thanks…I have tried everything. And can’t seem to get anywhere, its so crazy.

Media Opportunties 8 years, 5 months agoI am working on a very important film to raise awareness about the impact of egg donation on women’s lives. Young, vulnerable, cash-strapped women are recruited for the unregulated human egg market, but receive little information about how egg donation can affect their health and well-being. The film emerged out of my 5 years of anthropological r…[Read more]
