Genetic consequences of serial sperm donation

2025-09-21

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Study question</h4> How does serial sperm donation impact genetic risk in the donor-conceived children and their descendants? <h4>Summary answer</h4> In addition to the psychological effects of serial sperm donation, donor-conceived children are at risk of unintentional inbreeding. This risk is compounded by the hard-to-quantify effect of social proximity between mothers. Such inbreeding would cause children...
