Donor Insemination

If you've found it a challenge to conceive naturally, you're not alone. This is an increasing problem for a number of people. Around 1 in 25 men are unable to father a biological child for numerous medical or genetic reasons.  This means many couples need to seek alternative options when conceiving. In addition, a growing number of women wanting to have a baby may not always have a male partner to fulfill their dream of having a baby.

Fortunately, for those women under the age of 35, donor insemination is one of the options available at our fertility clinic that can help create a  baby.

Donor insemination has the advantage that half the genetic make-up of your child comes from the mother. It allows you to experience not only the raising of a child, but also the pregnancy and childbirth.

Could Donor Sperm Be An Option For You?

Donor insemination is useful in a number of different situations:

  • When a male partner is not able to produce healthy or sufficient sperm
  • When the male partner is a carrier of a hereditary disease
  • When the male partner has HIV
  • When a woman without a male partner wishes to become a mother

One in eight couples seeking infertility assistance will need a sperm donor to achieve their dream of a baby.

Donor sperm can be used as part of artificial insemination, IVF, intra-cytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI), and ovulation induction treatments.
