Introduction: Kidney donors typically experience a 20 to 30 percent decrease in kidney function

(as measured by the glomerular filtration rate) after donation. The remaining kidney compensates for
the loss of one kidney, through a process called hyper filtration. Other complications that may occur
in the long-term following surgery to donate a kidney include:

 Developing a disease that could affect the function of the remaining kidney such as:
o Diabetes
o High blood pressure
o Obesity 
 Natural decline in kidney function as get older
 Developing end-stage renal disease (ESRD) 
 Increase in the amount of protein spilled into the urine
 Chronic pain
 Nerve damage 
 The National Organ Transplantation Act of 1984 specifically prohibits the
exchange of "valuable consideration" for a human organ ("It shall be unlawful for
any person to knowingly acquire, receive, or otherwise transfer any human organ
for valuable consideration for use in human transplantation").
 Therefore, it is illegal to sell organs; if this occurs, it is punishable by fines,
imprisonment, or both.

Body: Physical exercise is healthy and good for you. However, it's important for
someone with only one kidney to be careful and protect it from injury. Some doctors
think it is best to avoid contact sports like football, boxing, hockey, soccer, martial arts,
or wrestling. Wearing protective gear such as padded vests under clothing can help
protect the kidney from injury during sports. This can help lessen the risk, but it won't
take away the risk. Talk to your healthcare provider if you want to join in contact sports.
Donors are encouraged to have good long-term medical follow-up with their primary
care doctors. A urine test, a blood pressure check and a blood test for kidney
function (GFR) should be done every year. Therefore increases your expenses. In
general, kidney donation has minimal long-term risks, especially when compared with
the health risks in the general population. However, kidney donation may very slightly
increase your risk of eventually developing kidney failure yourself, particularly if you're a
middle-aged man/woman. What if you don’t have the money to live in such a healthy
environment and you did it just for the money? Then the answer is clear that there is a
higher chance that you will have medical problems in the long term process of having
one kidney. After donation, living donors often report a wide range of mixed emotions,
from joy and relief to anxiety to depression. The process of getting through the
evaluation and surgery can be so time-consuming that donors do not always have time
to process everything they are feeling. It is normal for these emotions to come to the
forefront after the donation and transplant take place.
Living donors generally rate their experience as positive. Different studies indicate that
between 80-97% of donors say that in retrospect, they would have still have made the
decision to donate.
However, concerns about the recipient's outcome (as well as the donor's recovery) can
contribute to feelings of anxiety, and may donors report a feeling of "let down"
afterwards. Feelings of depression among living donors are not uncommon, even when
both donor and recipient are doing well. Then how about selling them? Will they do it
just for the money? It affects your physical, and emotional state.

Conclusion: The sale of human organs should not be legalized because it will benefit
the wealthy but pressure the poor to sacrifice their own health, it would be more difficult
to obtain an organ if donors can sell them and people may think they can use their body
for profit.
