In Vitro Fertilization (IVF)
IVF is comprised of a series of complex fertility procedures. It starts with closely monitoring and manipulating the woman’s ovulatory process to produce mature eggs. The mature eggs are then collected and removed from the woman’s ovaries. In a lab, the eggs are fertilized with the chosen sperm. Once one of the eggs is fertilized, it’s transferred back into the woman’s uterus to be carried to term.Women have the option of choosing a known or anonymous sperm donor, harvesting the remaining eggs for future use, carrying the embryo themselves, or hiring a surrogate to carry the embryo.
Intrauterine Insemination (IUI)
IUI, which is also known as artificial insemination, is a quick and convenient procedure that can be done in a few minutes. A minimally invasive procedure, IUI involves transferring purified donor or anonymous sperm directly into the uterus as close to the mature egg as possible through the vagina to increase the chances of fertilization. Women who undergo this procedure have a 10% to 20% chance of conception. The likelihood increases with every IUI cycle.Therapeutic Donor Insemination (TDI)
Viable donor sperm is one of the key ingredients to achieving successful pregnancy. You have two options for obtaining donor sperm:- Ask a trusted friend or family member to donate their sperm
- Or use an anonymous sperm donor that’s been carefully vetted by a reputable fertility clinic
