When you go to donate sperm, you'll have to go through a full-fledged, hair-raising, body-invading, pinch-'n'-prodding medical exam. You'll be tested for more things than you want to know, including:
- ABO-Rh blood typing
- complete blood count (CBC)
- chemistry panel
- cystic fibrosis carrier screening
- semen analysis
- sickle cell carrier testing
- Tay-Sachs carrier testing
- urinalysis
And if you're accepted, then every three months you'll be tested for lotsa stuff, including:
- ALT
- chlamydia
- gonorrhea
- hepatitis B
- hepatitis C
- HIV
- syphilis
You have one of these, and the ballgame is over. So live cleanly, young jedi.
