Updates to Profile
| Update Available | Yes |
| Updates - Personal | Update received June 2022: Occupation has changed to Principal Planner. No change to donor Personal Profile: June 2023, September 2025. |
| Updates - Medical | Update April 2022: The donor is a possible carrier for Refsum Disease (PHYH). Results show an indeterminate result with a variant of unknown significance in the PHYH gene. Additional donor testing was completed at the request of a recipient who is a carrier. No affected child with the condition has been reported. No change to donor Medical Profile: June 2022. Update received June 2023: Donor underwent surgery to replace a herniated disc in his neck with a prosthetic at age 42. Update February 2025: Donor has tested positive for a variant in the MYH7 gene. One variant increases the risk for heart disease, specifically hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. The donor is healthy in his 40s. His children have a 50% chance to inherit the variant. This was discovered due to testing in a healthy pregnancy with no medical indication. No reports of early onset heart disease in his children or his family have been received. No change to profile: September 2025. |
| Updates - Family Medical History | No change to donor Family Medical History: June 2022, June 2023, September 2025.UPDATE FEB 2022: This donor has an update to his genetic testing and MAY be a carrier for Refsum Disease (PHYH) based on the finding of a variant of unknown significance (VUS). When a VUS is identified, it is unclear whether that variant is associated with a specific health condition. In many cases, the variant is so rare in the general population that it has not been described in the literature or variant databases, thus there is little published information to review. Identification of a heterozygous variant of uncertain significance does not establish or rule out the diagnosis of a disorder and no medical management recommendations are made based solely on the finding of a VUS. No affected child with this condition has been reported, rather the testing was done at the request of a recipient based on her carrier status. Out of an abundance of caution, carrier testing for PHYH is therefore indicated for anyone using this donor.UPDATE FEB 2025: This donor has been tested and found to have single disease-causing variant in the MYH7 gene. The request to test the donor followed a positive result in an embryo tested with no medical indication. Having one copy of this variant means an increased risk for familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. Familial hypertrophic cardiomyopathy symptoms are highly variable, ranging from asymptomatic left ventricular hypertrophy to arrhythmias (atrial fibrillation as well as malignant ventricular arrhythmias) to heart failure. Manifestations can vary even within the same family. At the time of this update, the donor remains healthy with no heart issues in his mid-40’s. Only his paternal grandfather had heart disease, having a fatal heart attack at age 72. He was also a smoker. His daughter is now 7 years old and healthy. There are 12 births reported with children 3 years old and younger. No children have been reported to us with heart issues. Any child from this donor has a 50% chance of inheriting this MYH7 variant.UPDATE SEPT 2025: A donor conceived child was diagnosed with 22q11 deletion syndrome. The donor was tested and was NEGATIVE. Therefore, the deletion in the child is believed to be new to the child. There is no increased risk of occurrence of 22q11 deletion syndrome in other donor conceived children. |
