are you considering AI using donor sperm? if you are, please be open-minded to what i have to say:
i'm sure your desire for a child is very great, and i'm not trying to discount that at all, but have you considered the life your child will lead? i'd like to say now, that, as the offspring of an anonymous donor, and from the opinions of many more of us (thousands in fact), this choice really might be reconsidered. we live in a constant identity struggle because most of us will never know our fathers, nor our siblings, despite our efforts. this has been a fight for us for probably over 60 years now (i say that only because the oldest of us i know is in their 60s, yet AI has been going on for over a hundred years now). on top of that, it will be a hardship for you as well if you go thru with it. please reconsider, and look further into the situation of us offspring and our struggles. and please, message me back if you would like more information, because i'd be happy to give it to you
if you're not considering donor sperm, good luck! even with this salute to you though, please keep in mind there is always adoption. there are lots of kids out there who already need love.

Donor sperm can cost about $300-500 , then the monitoring visit costs are about $600. I would say buy your sperm and have them store it as the cryo bank until you tell them to overnight it to you when your ovulation test turns positive. Then let the specimen thaw in a tepid bath water and insert an ICI (intra cervical insemination) prepared specimen with a syringe.

Around $10,000 - $12,000 USD for IVF.
Far less for Ovulation Induction and IUI.
