Freeze your sperm

If you’re trying to conceive with a surrogate, we recommend freezing your sample until you’ve achieved a healthy pregnancy, as a back-up plan. Explore sperm storage options.

STI testing

To use your frozen sperm, it is required by law in most states to have an STI test done at time of sample collection. Purchase at-home STI testing. (This is included in the For Tomorrow and Forever bundles, saving you up to $200.)

Other FDA screening

Discuss other necessary screening with your clinic or healthcare provider prior to onboarding.
