Sperm banking is common for men undergoing treatments that may compromise their future fertility such as chemotherapy, radiation and operations such as prostatectomy or vasectomy. On the other hand, sperm donation is a practice of the provision of a man’s sperm with the only intention of artificial insemination for others. Therefore, sperm cryopreservation in healthy men for the protection of their future fertility is uncommon, and makes no sense. Banking Benjamin - who is contemplating the weird ideas of “sperm-saving” for his future fertility and also “banking on the possibility of private donation” is putting Dr. G on the spot. His response is: “Saving Private Banking is often a waste of energy in a healthy man, as plenty of sperm is still left in the old world to ensure spacious plans in the new!”
