Donor Embryo or Sperm - How did you choose???

[neeve]

Hi Dusty,
Thanks for the reply!! Our cycle (fresh) did fail and of the 10 eggs collected we only ended up with one semi ok embryo and no frozen. DH has seen a urologist and we are waiting for results and ideas so that we can look at our options moving forwards. timing is good as I am on a forced break for a month.
It looks like we may be able to do a direct collection from DH at the next EPU. Our urologist thinks that we wont be able to do a DNA fragmentation test with DH's sperm as there aren't enough to test.
We are taking it one step at a time now and wait to see what happens. Thanks for the support and for giving me food for thought!

Hello,

for us it wasn't a choice it was a matter of necessity. Dh sperm don't swim due to a genetic condition. So to get pregnant I need a sperm donor.

I hope you dont have to go down this path. As of 1st of january 2010. There will be no oversea donor sperm. Which I think will make the waiting list for sperm donors awfully long.

I pray your IVF works!!

sincerely
