Warning on illegal sale of donor sperm from saedbank.com

The Danish Medicines Agency has twice before warned against the sperm bank A. I. Sædbank, which yet again sells donor sperm illegally from the website www.saedbank.com. The website has been inactive for a period, but is now active again.

According to the information on the website, the sperm bank supplies donor sperm for persons in the former Aarhus County.

Saedbank.com has not been authorised

The sperm bank has not been authorised by the Danish Medicines Agency, and it is therefore not legal to sell sperm from the website.

Potential risk of infectious diseases

The Danish Medicines Agency cannot guarantee that the donor sperm sold from the website is safe to use, neither in terms of quality and safety. In addition, there is no guarantee that the donors have been tested for relevant diseases such as HIV and hepatitis.

If you have used sperm from www.saedbank.com and have questions about the risk of infection, please contact your own doctor.

Please also see our previous warnings about A. I. Sædbank in the right-hand box.
