  • but what is the difference between using an anonymous donor and the doctor himself providing it

    As I understand it the parents weren't looking for donation, just IVF and the male donation provided wasn't used, the doctor substituted his own.

    So its like going to get your own frozen eggs implanted, but he puts his own in instead.

    The Guardian article isn't clear about this, but in fact a lot of these were cases where the parents had requested donor sperm. Jacoba Ballard, one of the main people quoted in the Guardian article, had been told she was conceived through donor inseminiation when she was 10.
