Based on tshuvos from Reb Moshe we can say

Niuff byad is an issur which married couples who undergo IVF can get around, but some guy in a clinic can't.

The assumption is that the sperm will go to a nonjew, so there is no kiyum of pru urvu to dissipate the issur of hotzaas zera livatala.

Since you can't guarantee that a Jewish woman won't end up impregnated with said sperm, you run into a problem of siblings from the same father possibly marrying each other, which is arayos and makes mamzeirim.

Do we need Kiyum Pru uRvu to dissipate it? Wouldn't we still allow for Bedika of a Kerut Shofkha to allow him to marry an Aylonit?

I'm not familiar with that. I thought we don't ever allow bedikos for marriage. If you have something to share I'd be iinterested in seeing it.

I thought RMFs whole proof was from a Gemara in Yevamot about checking a Krut Shofkha to see if he could marry, and IVF is a Kol Shekein

@Double He mentions the theoretical case of using hot bread to test without niuf yes, but I don't think he believes that is actually muttar to do. The gemara itself was docheh that approach. Have you ever seen someone allowing that bedika?

#3 might be avoided if the donor is willing to reveal his identity to the parents?
