Abstract

Objective: This study aimed to examine the behavior towards the acceptance of donor egg, donor sperm, and donor embryo of Northern Thai infertile couples, separated between men and women.

Methods: A cross-sectional study was conducted at the CMEx Fertility Center, Chiang Mai, Thailand. The questionnaires consisted of sociodemographic questions and the acceptance of couples toward donor egg, sperm and embryo. The couples filled in the answers separately.

Results: A total of 250 infertile couples were assessed. There were no differences in the acceptance rate of donor egg, sperm and embryo between the men and the women. Male acceptance rates were 25.6%, 18.8%, and 18.8%, respectively; while female acceptance rates were 24.4%, 18.4%, and 19.2%, respectively. Most couples (over 70%) concordantly rejected the donation program. Around 10% of couples had discordant answers. The concordance accepted for couples for donor egg, sperm and embryo was only 20%, 13.2%, and 14.8%. Older people and those who had been infertile for a longer period were significantly more likely to accept donation programs.

Conclusions: There is no difference concerning the acceptance of donor gametes and embryo among men and women. Most participants reject the utilization of donor programs, the overall acceptance rate is relatively low. This may indicate the need for more adequate information and education for the community to enhance prevention programs rather than focus on the treatment with donor gametes or embryos.

泰国北部不育夫妇接受捐赠卵子、精子和胚胎行为的性别差异。
研究目的本研究旨在调查泰国北部不孕夫妇接受捐献卵子、捐献精子和捐献胚胎的行为:在泰国清迈的 CMEx 生育中心进行了一项横断面研究。问卷内容包括社会人口学问题以及夫妇对捐献卵子、精子和胚胎的接受程度。夫妇们分别填写了答案:共有 250 对不育夫妇接受了评估。男女双方对捐献卵子、精子和胚胎的接受率没有差异。男性的接受率分别为 25.6%、18.8% 和 18.8%;女性的接受率分别为 24.4%、18.4% 和 19.2%。大多数夫妇(超过 70%)一致拒绝捐献计划。约 10%的夫妇的答案不一致。接受捐献卵子、精子和胚胎的夫妇比例分别只有 20%、13.2% 和 14.8%。年龄较大和不育时间较长的人接受捐献计划的可能性明显更高:结论:男性和女性对捐献配子和胚胎的接受程度没有差异。大多数参与者拒绝接受捐献计划,总体接受率相对较低。这可能表明,有必要为社区提供更充分的信息和教育,以加强预防计划,而不是将重点放在使用捐献配子或胚胎进行治疗上。
