Transplant question

Hi all...my husband has Mantle Cell Lymphoma and we are in the beginning stages of getting him ready for a stem cell transplant. My questions are: I read somewhere that a female donor is better for a male recipient. Has anyone heard of this before? Also, our two children (adult kids) are a 50/50 match....do you think we could/should look elsewhere for a better match? There are no other family members as his parents have both passed away and his siblings are half siblings that we have no contact with. Just looking for info to get started on all of this. Thanks so much!!
