With her biological clock ticking louder and louder, and a partner whose wish for children had already been fulfilled, Kim, a 37-year-old woman from the Netherlands, decided in June 2020 it was time to start seriously looking into the possibilities of satisfying her desire to become a mother.
Because she had never had any particular attachment to the “traditional” family, she eventually ended up at a Dutch fertility clinic, where she was offered the choice between a sperm donor from a Dutch sperm bank or from commercial Danish sperm banks.
She opted for the latter because they offered a wider variety of donors and more information about them.
