It’s how much to have a behbeh?!

In this week's episode of Sperm Sisters, we're following the money.

As three donor-conceived sisters, we investigate the rising cost of fertility treatment, IVF, and sperm donation in the UK, asking whether eye-watering clinic fees are pushing people towards finding donors on social media instead.

Oh, and Mandy’s back! We call Mum to hear what fertility treatment was really like in the 1980s. She gives us a bit of an eye opening biology lesson, it’s pretty insightful to be fair!

And… introducing Sperm Sisters Mailbag! 🎉

For the first time, we're answering your questions, sharing our thoughts, and diving into the topics you want us to discuss.

This episode covers:

• UK fertility clinics
• IVF and fertility treatment
• The cost of sperm donation
• Donor conception
• Social media sperm donors
• Listener questions and real-life experiences

Educational, eye-opening, and as always... completely unhinged.

When you've spent decades apart, it's not just the big life events you miss, it's the glorious teenage disaster stories and embarrassing moments that help you piece together who your long lost sibling really is.

In this week's episode of Sperm Sisters, we're swapping DNA discoveries for teenage traumas as three donor-conceived sisters continue the important work of exposing each other's pasts.

Helen reveals the full extent of her Kate Nash-inspired college fashion choices (it was a confusing time for everyone involved), Nat revisits a couple of talent show incidents she'd probably rather forget, and Gemma shares why she stripped off in the middle of a lesson.

"Unofficial sperm donor sells BBC 'baby batter' delivered with tomato passata."

Yes, you read that right.

Inspired by a recent BBC Wales article, this week on the Sperm Sisters podcast we dive into the alarming rise of "DIY" fertility options and the hidden risks that come with them. For many people, soaring fertility treatment costs have made unofficial sperm donation seem like a more affordable route to parenthood. But that lower price tag can come with serious consequences: unregulated donors, no medical screening or background checks, legal uncertainty, and in some cases, donors later seeking parental rights.

But before all that… would you trust a carton of tomato passata as a way of keeping sperm frozen in the post? We certainly wouldn't.
