BRITAIN21-yr.-old frozen sperm produces baby A woman has given birth to a healthy baby using sperm from her husband that had been frozen for 21 years, scientists said 25 Researchers from St Mary's Hospital and Christie Hospital, in Manchester, northwest England, said that they thought the 21-year gap was the longest ever for a successful birth. The child's father had five samples of sperm frozen in 1979 after he was diagnosed with testicular cancer and underwent treatment that it was known would leave him sterile, according to the scientific journal an Reproduction. His cancer was cured and 21 years later he and his wife decided they wanted children.
