‘We have used London Women's Clinic twice in the last two years for successful egg retrieval and two subsequent frozen embryo transfers. We have always been met with care, compassion and a personal approach. Every step from the initial consultation right through to the 7 week scan has been professional and polite, always accommodating our needs and timings. We can't thank the team enough for giving us such support towards creating our family.’

‘Myself and my husband owe it all to london womens clinic, they were amazing from start to finish. We previously were under another clinic and decided to make the change due to many reasons and we are so glad we did. They treat everyone as individuals, not everyones fertility journeys are the same. The small team at Colchester make it so personable not to mention how amazing all 4 women are that work here, their knowledge empathy and listening skills simply cannot be found at any other clinic. The list goes on as to why I would recommend LWC but everyone likes a to the point review. They genuinely care they dont treat you like a number and they help you through every hurdle that occurs. Our little boy wouldn't be possible without these 4, each of them play a bigger part than they realise. 💙’

London Sperm Bank FAQs
Yes. In the UK, children conceived using donor sperm can access identifying information about their donor once they reach 18. Our clinic partner team is happy to talk through what this means and how openness is supported throughout treatment.
Using a UK sperm bank offers greater reassurance and long-term protection. Donors are carefully screened and counselled, donor use is limited to a maximum of 10 families, and full records are maintained. This supports safety, transparency and informed choice for families and donor-conceived children. By comparison, donors recruited outside the UK may be subject to different regulations and family limits, which can affect long-term traceability and access to information.
Yes. Through our sister clinic, London Sperm Bank, all donors are recruited, screened and counselled in the UK, in line with HFEA regulations. Any imported donor sperm must also meet strict UK and EU regulatory standards.
Donor sperm may be used by single women, same-sex female couples and patients whose partner is unable to provide sperm. Our team will help you understand whether donor sperm is the right option for your individual circumstances.
We know waiting can be stressful. At London Egg Bank, there are no waiting lists. All donor eggs are already frozen and available immediately, so once you select a donor from our database, your treatment can begin without delay. We also offer donors from most ethnicities, helping you find a match that feels right for you.
