Also, having looked into this more, while donation from 18yos is common, many doctors hesitate when it's to a family member. How will this barely-adult feel seeing her biological child call someone else Mom? Even for older family-to-family donors have this problem. A good doctor will look at the overall situation in addition to just what's allowed or not. She may say she's fine with it, but he could have the feeling that it might not be the best situation. If you want something done, you can always find a doctor who will do what you want (look at Nadya Suleman's dr), but seek a second opinion before castin gthis doctor off as somehow wrong.
