Attitudes towards information sharing in donor conception have changed in recent years in some parts of the world, with a move towards openness. This study follows up a sample of embryo donation mothers, examining their current disclosure patterns and comparing them with adoptive and IVF mothers to investigate any influence of the method of family creation. This study compared 17 mothers with an embryo donation child aged 5-9 years with 24 mothers with an adopted child and 28 mothers with a genetically related IVF child. Embryo donation mothers were far less likely to share information with the child; 43% were inclined towards disclosing, compared with all adoptive mothers and nearly 90% of IVF mothers. Furthermore, embryo donation and IVF mothers who had disclosed had often only given partial explanations of the child's conception. Differences between embryo donation and adoption in particular should be taken into account when advising embryo recipients.
近年来，在世界上的一些地方，人们对供体受孕中信息共享的态度发生了变化，越来越倾向于公开透明。本研究跟踪了一批胚胎捐赠母亲，考察了她们目前的披露模式，并与收养母亲和体外受精（IVF）母亲进行了比较，以调查家庭生育方式是否会产生影响。本研究比较了 17 名有 5-9 岁胚胎捐赠孩子的母亲、24 名收养孩子的母亲和 28 名有遗传关系的 IVF 孩子的母亲。与所有收养母亲和近 90%的 IVF 母亲相比，愿意向孩子透露信息的胚胎捐赠母亲比例要低得多，只有 43%。此外，已经透露信息的胚胎捐赠和 IVF 母亲往往只对孩子的受孕情况进行了部分解释。在向胚胎接受者提供建议时，应特别考虑胚胎捐赠和收养之间的差异。
