The objective of the study is to examine attitudes towards aspects of donation treatment based on a national Swedish sample of gamete donors and couples undergoing assisted reproductive techniques (ART).
The present study was part of the Swedish study on gamete donation, a prospective longitudinal cohort study including all fertility clinics performing gamete donation in Sweden. The sample comprised 164 oocyte donors, 89 sperm donors, 251 people treated with their own gametes (in vitro fertilisation (IVF)), 213 oocyte recipients and 487 sperm recipients. A study-specific questionnaire was used.
Attitudes vary widely between couples using their own gametes for IVF and those receiving or donating oocyte or sperm. The groups differed in their responses to most questions. Oocyte and sperm donors were more likely to agree with the statements "The donor should be informed if the donation results in a child" and "Offspring should receive some information about the donor during mature adolescence" than recipients of donated gametes and couples treated with their own gametes.
Donor recipients, IVF couples and donors expressed different attitudes towards openness and information when it came to gamete donation, and those differences seemed to depend on their current reproductive situation.
本研究旨在基于瑞典全国范围内的配子捐赠者样本以及接受辅助生殖技术(ART)的夫妇,考察他们对捐赠治疗各方面的态度。
本研究是瑞典配子捐赠研究的一部分,这是一项前瞻性纵向队列研究,涵盖了瑞典所有进行配子捐赠的生育诊所。样本包括164名卵母细胞捐赠者、89名精子捐赠者、251名使用自身配子进行治疗(体外受精(IVF))的人、213名卵母细胞接受者和487名精子接受者。使用了一份专门为本研究设计的问卷。
使用自身配子进行IVF的夫妇与接受或捐赠卵母细胞或精子的夫妇之间的态度差异很大。在大多数问题的回答上,这些群体存在差异。与接受捐赠配子的夫妇和使用自身配子进行治疗的夫妇相比,卵母细胞和精子捐赠者更倾向于认同“如果捐赠导致孩子出生,捐赠者应被告知”以及“后代在成年期应获得一些关于捐赠者的信息”这两条陈述。
在配子捐赠方面,捐赠接受者、IVF夫妇和捐赠者在开放性和信息方面表达了不同的态度,这些差异似乎取决于他们当前的生殖状况。
