Transporting frozen sperm

[Libsie3103]

My husband has had his sperm frozen by the NHS due to his chemo and we need to move it from Gloucester hospital to our IVF clinic in Birmingham. I wondered if anyone had any experience of having samples moved and what companies people have used that I could approach.

My clinic has recommended one but they seem really expensive - it maybe that it is going to be expensive but it would be good to have something to compare it to!

Thanks!

I havent used them for this but city sprint health might be one to get a quote for. I know they do medical samples/speciments, drugs etc.xx

Hi Libsie. Your clinic can arrange this, or you loan a mini Dewar (freezer) and take them yourself. Good luck! Diane

That’s great to know, the clinic haven’t mentioned that so I’ll ask them! We’re potentially changing clinics so I’ll ask when we have our consultation at the new clinic! xx
