Are pregnancy losses included in donor pregnancy count?

Hi Nicole,

If a miscarriage is reported, is a pregnancy added to the donor's count even though it wasn't viable? If a purchaser were to call and ask, could she get a pregnancy loss count for a donor?

Thank you

    Hi K -

    We ask our clients to report all outcomes (pregnancies, miscarriages, and births). This can be done over the phone or by completing our online form: https://cryobank.com/Services/Post-Conception-Services/Report-Pregnancy/

    You may speak to one of our genetic counselors if you have questions about losses for a donor. Our genetic counselors are available Monday through Friday from 8:00AM through 5:00 PM at (877) 743 6384.

    Additional information regarding pregnancy loss is available on our website: https://cryobank.com/Services/Genetic-Counseling/Genetics-FAQs/#answerMiscarriage

    So....

    Are losses still counted as "pregnancies", or are they subtracted from the donor's total?

    Thanks again

    Hi K -

    Clients must first report a pregnancy. If a loss or birth is later reported, it does not change the number of reported pregnancies.
