You may have to make a few compromises, but with Xytex’s vast variety, there won’t be many! You’ll know when you’ve found the right one. We both instantly knew he was THE ONE & stopped looking. When you do find someone you love, don’t wait. Vials get snatched up quickly!
We’re the Hahns, a happily married same-sex couple from Charlotte, NC. I’m a Realtor & my wife is a pro Real Estate Photographer. We met in January 2018, got engaged in June 2019, & married in October 2020! We started our fertility journey in November 2020. Follow the crazy, amazing, incredible trip on Instagram @makingbabyhahn.
We are trying IUI & I (Beth) will carry first. We’d both love to carry using the same donor! Our ultimate dream! As a same-sex couple, we needed help, so we used a fertility clinic (REACH in Charlotte) and Reproductive Endocrinologist. Our clinic recommended 5 banks, and we immediately started browsing. Others weren’t as user-friendly, lacking a variety of donors and photos. Xytex far exceeded the others!
The site is easy to navigate and “Favorite” a donor, so you can come back & compare! We loved the little icons specifying important notes on each donor, and there were so many photos of each donor! THAT SOLD US! No other bank offers as many photos. We loved the extensive genetic testing, the “in their own words” essays from the donors, and the personality notes!
Our pick needed to be negative for certain carrier conditions and CMV negative! Intelligent but still outgoing, laid back, & fun! Our donor’s personality came through in his essay & answers to questions. He was the cutest little boy EVER! Curly hair, light eyes, & dimples! #Swoon He only had 1 vial left! We purchased it immediately and it was overnighted to our clinic. The staff was friendly, helpful, knowledgeable, & supportive! I was even added to my donor’s Wait List so I would be notified if he had more vials available! Excellent experience from beginning to end!
Give yourself plenty of time to find a donor. You CAN find the perfect donor. Make a list. You may have to make a few compromises, but with Xytex’s vast variety, there won’t be many! You’ll know when you’ve found the right one. We both instantly knew he was THE ONE & stopped looking. When you do find someone you love, don’t wait. Vials get snatched up quickly!
Our little vial of sperm is sitting in the freezer at our fertility clinic, waiting for our first IUI in January 2021. We can hardly wait!
