We are not quite sure. Some clinics provide the donor with information about the number of offspring. We do not know if this information is being provided to the DCPs if requested. #ESHREjc

That seems a good mechanism! It’s important to acknowledge that not all DCP want contact, and that both the right to know about others and DCP right to privacy need to be considered. I am curious if they are also told how many people are born from the same donor? #ESHREjc

We believe it necessary for same-donor peers to have consented to being identifiable to other DCPs. In Sweden a DCP can choose to add their own name and contact-information in the donors medical record at the clinic if they are open to being identified by same-donor peers.

In this study, only 1/3 were interested in contacting others conceived from the same donor, while the majority were not interested/were uncertain. How can we balance curiosity and interest in knowing others while protecting the privacy of those who do not want contact? #ESHREjc
