Two, family survey

1, chromosomal diseases: exclude all types of chromosomal diseases

2, monogenic genetic diseases: exclude albinism, hemoglobin abnormalities, hemophilia, hereditary hypercholesterolemia, neurofibromatosis, tuberous sclerosis, β-thalassemia, cystic fibrosis, familial dementia, glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase deficiency, congenital deafness, and so on. deficiency, congenital deafness, Prader-willi syndrome, and hereditary optic nerve atrophy.

3, polygenic genetic diseases: exclude cleft lip, cleft palate, malformed feet, congenital hip dislocation, congenital heart disease, hypospadias, spina bifida, asthma, epilepsy, juvenile diabetes mellitus, psychiatric disorders, rheumatoid arthritis, severe hypertension, severe refractive errors and other diseases.

Three, physical examination

Expanded:

.

According to the data from the sperm bank, the quality of semen of male sperm donors has decreased in recent years, and the vitality of sperm has also decreased, most likely because modern people live in a faster pace of life, and life pressure is also relatively large, and then some young people, living habits, and the life routine is not very good, which leads to a decline in the quality of semen.

Basic standards for external sperm supply:

Frozen semen used for external sperm supply for donor insemination or in vitro fertilization - embryo transfer, the forward-moving spermatozoa (grade a+b) after freeze recovery is not less than 40%, and the total number of forward-moving spermatozoa in each semen shall not be less than 12x10?

Frozen semen used for donor insemination or in vitro fertilization - embryo transfer is not less than 40%, and the total number of forward-moving spermatozoa in each semen is not less than 12x10?

Ministry of Health strictly prohibits commercialization and industrialization of human sperm bank:

The Ministry of Health pointed out that assisted human reproduction technology and human sperm bank belong to the restricted application of high-tech health technology, and the provincial health administrative departments should take practical measures to strictly prohibit the commercialization and industrialization of this technology.

The Ministry of Health issued a notice emphasizing that all areas should be based on the jurisdiction of the health development plan, the population structure and the number of people of childbearing age, the incidence of infertility patients and the level of economic development, as well as the level of health care institutions, the nature of the level of technology, equipment and other conditions, to develop assisted human reproduction technology and human sperm bank set up planning, strict control of the number of new institutions to carry out this technology.
