What if the children from embryo or egg donation accidentally reproduce with their siblings (consanguineous reproduction)?
This is a common question asked by embryo, sperm, and egg donors. According to published guidelines and basic statistics, if one couple donates cryopreserved embryos, the chance of accidentally meeting and mating with a sibling is extremely unlikely.
