      What happens if a child conceived from my donated embryos wants to contact me?

      Children conceived from donated embryos can request identifying information about the donors from the HFEA when they turn 18.

      Under UK law, children born from donated embryos have the right to contact the Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority (HFEA) to request identifying information about the donors once they reach 18 years of age. This is an important consideration for potential donors.
