Om avsnittet
In our last episode, we heard Timo’s story about taking a DNA test for fun, only to discover over 50 secret half-siblings. Eggs and sperm are traded and shipped across international borders every single day. But what actually happens when there are no laws or regulations regarding donations? In this episode, we dive into the global donor business, comparing the regulations between egg and sperm donation, and highlighting the critical lack of cross-border tracking. We are joined in our Stockholm studio by embryologist and Director of Research at Livio, Aisling Ahlström, to discuss donor families, commercial DNA testing, and how to create a safer, more transparent future for everyone involved.
