Sperm donation in case of PCKD

Janet Jr · 2016-03-28 06:38:47 UTC

Hello Doctor, my husband suffers from polycystic kidney syndrome because his mother suffered from it, too. Now we want to have a baby but we wouldn't like our baby to have PCKD and we know it is a genetic disorder. We've considered sperm donation as a way towards pregnancy, but we want to make sure no other option is available for us before saying "no" forever to my husband's genetic code. We'd prefer sperm donation rather than traditional adoption though, especially my husband is not too comfortable with this idea. Any help out there? What is your opinion on this? Would you go straight for donor sperm?
