On our web site, we use the term "sperm bank" for any place that provides donor sperm to the public.
Some sperm banks are large companies that sell other biological products; others are smaller fertility clinics that also collect and store sperm.
Most of these banks are registered with the FDA but some only provide storage for their patients or for preservation of fertility for cancer patients.
