Fertility problems make it difficult to conceive the woman, but one option that is suitable for couples in which a man has sperm quality or women who cannot conceive artificial insemination is intrauterine insemination (IUI) with sperm. This procedure includes some medical risks, but it can also cause psychological problems, because only the mother is genetically associated with the child. On the other hand, IUI with donor sperm is a relatively uncomplicated process compared to some other fertility treatments.

IUI with donor semen requires the first selection of a suitable sperm donor. He may be an anonymous or a person the prospective mother knows. In many countries with advanced fertility medicine, donors have generally undergone many tests before IUI with donor sperm. These tests can identify the presence of infectious diseases and symptoms of physical defects in the donor.

The donor usually also fills in details of his family medical history and is tested on bloodType. It is unlikely that donor sperm, as tested by renowned medical staff, will affect the health of the future child. In general, potential parents can also choose a donor who corresponds to parents or parents in physical appearance so that the child does not seem to be associated with his parents.

Procedure is relatively simple with donor sperm and can usually be performed in a doctor's office in less than 20 minutes. The doctor puts the prepared donor sperm directly into the uterus through the vagina and the uterus, so there are no invasive procedures. The potential medical risk of the procedure is infection, although it is very rare. If a woman undergoes hormonal treatment to increase her fertility before insemination, she may also suffer side effects of hormones such as nausea or mood fluctuations.

This fiction of Ety treatment is suitable for couples in which the male partner has spermOther quality, and therefore it is unlikely that he would naturally imagine. A single woman who requires a donor can also opt for IUI with donor semen, as well as a lesbian couple. Healthy women who have no problems with cervical hospitality for sperm or who are not allergic to sperm can be treated with a similar procedure known as intracervical insemination (ICI). ICO is not suitable for women who have cervix that block sperm movement to the uterus or have an allergy to sperm, and IUI can do these problems.

Psychological disadvantages IUI with donor sperm include the fact that the male partner in the couple is not genetically related to the child, even if the mother is. This could cause problems if one feels unpleasant when a child raises as his own or feels unfortunate that he could not biologically the father of children. Another potential worry is that the donor might wish to be a bunch of child's life when the records are made available to a child, usually, when he is 18 years old. This problem could arise earlier if the donor is known to parents.

Insemination of donors is also influenced by the resulting child. The child may have psychological problems arising from the fact that his genetic father is unknown. Meeting with the donor after records are available can be emotionally taxed for the child.
