Title: Sperm Banks
Post by: Robin. on November 20, 2009, 05:18:22 PM
I need to find a sperm bank in alabama, but I can't seem to find one. I did a search on google and apparently the closest one is in Atlanta... Is it possible to do it through a hospital and have it shipped or something?

As I understand the process, the sperm has to be frozen pretty quickly to remain viable after thawing.

I don't know that hospitals would have the facilities or the inclination to freeze, preserve and ship a specimen to a sperm bank.

Call or email to be sure.  They probably field questions like this all the time.  You don't have to give your name if you are uncomfortable.

Imagine if it arrived at the wrong address. "Martha, your face cream is here!"
