We are on the verge of reactivating the donor we used for a sibling attempt. Has anyone done this? (Im sure someone has lol) but what was your result? Did the donor agree to do it? How many vials did yoy get from one donation? We really want a full sibling and no one seems to have any extra of our donor so this is our next step.

    We sent in the forms to have this process started and received a wonderful call from the cryobank stating they had units in storage. A lower mobility then meets their standard but available to us if we didn't mind the lack of warranty. We jumped at the opportunity you may want to see if this is an option as well first before trying to reactivate the donor

    Same thing here. We sent in the reactivation form but were instead able to buy lower count vials at a discount.

    For those of you who bought the lower count vials, did it affect your ability to get pregnant or length of time to get pregnant?
