The Insemination or IVF Process

Depending on your situation and fertility health, you may use IUI or IVF:

With IUI, sperm is inserted directly into the uterus during the fertile window to facilitate fertilization. With IVF, eggs are retrieved from the ovaries and fertilized with donor sperm in a lab. The resulting embryos are then transferred to the uterus.

Using Donor Sperm FAQ

The demand for donor sperm continues to increase and is most widely used for single women, lesbian couples, and heterosexual couples experiencing infertility.

Donor sperm is sperm that is donated by a male with the intention of helping others conceive a child and grow their family. Sperm is collected by a sperm bank, and then processed in a lab to ensure quality for use in fertility treatment. Donor sperm is kept frozen and safely stored until purchased by a family for treatment. Sperm donors from a bank always remain anonymous.

Typically, sperm banks require donors to undergo a battery of tests to ensure both physical and mental fitness, as well as sperm analysis to screen for genetic disorders. Additionally, infectious disease testing and confirming an absence of high-risk behaviors are required per FDA regulations. Pinnacle Fertility works with the reputable sperm donor bank of your choice and coordinates with them to ensure the process is seamless.

There are many factors that impact IVF success rates. Influencing factors include things like the efficacy of your practitioner, the method and technology used, your personal health, lifestyle, and other complicating factors like age.

Thanks to Dr. Dudley, we achieved a successful pregnancy, a dream that once seemed unattainable. His expertise and empathy made him not just a doctor but a beacon of hope in our most challenging times. We are profoundly grateful to Dr. Dudley and highly recommend him to any couple facing fertility issues!

We've worked with RGI twice now, and have had an excellent experience both times. Dr. Maseelall and her team have been amazing to work with. This time around, we were introduced to the "navigators" who essentially act as a liaison between us and the doctors, which was a change from the last time we were there. We found having access to a dedicated resource - even by text message - was a huge plus.

I highly recommend Dr. Dudley! He is one of the only doctors who explained things clearly, realistically, and positively. His bedside manner is outstanding. A defining moment (without disclosing my medical history) was when I explained something to him and he responded with "I believe in a women's intuition." He believed me, ran a quick test, and pivoted the plan. I can't recommend him enough.

My husband I went to Dominion after struggling with some fertility issues and multiple miscarriages. We couldn't have made a better choice! You can tell that the staff really care about their patients and make you feel at ease. At the beginning of the process, we were feeling a bit overwhelmed, but the doctors were understanding and great at explaining each step to us along the way. We now have a healthy baby boy and we could not be more happy and grateful to Dominion Fertility!!
