It could be caused by IVF. A lot can go wrong. Damage to the eggs, exposure to chemicals, damage during reentry, not getting a soul from the mother during zygote stage.
That was my thought. If that donor had donated samples at a dozen different banks in half a dozen states that would imply correlation strongly, but if all the donation went through the same process in the same place then it's just as likely a local phenomenon.
