For couples struggling with male infertility issues like zero sperm count, using donor sperm can enable parenthood. Especially when other assisted reproductive techniques fail. But the choice entails deep social, ethical and emotional considerations. This is where an empathetic fertility specialist provides invaluable support.

Meet Dr. Manjushree Kothekar, a leading IVF specialist practising in Mumbai for over 12 years. With extensive experience in fertility procedures like IUI, IVF, ICSI and donor gametes - she is the go-to expert for insightful guidance on sperm donation.

Why Opt for Donor Sperm Treatment?

Donor sperm may be recommended when:

The male has nil sperm count or too few viable sperm

There are severe abnormalities or genetic issues affecting sperm

Other fertility treatments have repeatedly failed

In case of single mothers by choice and same-sex couples

However, the choice of using another man's sperm to conceive is sensitive and needs understanding on both sides. This is why counselling sessions with an empathetic fertility doctor are so important.

What Does Donor Sperm Treatment Involve?

The process starts on day 2 of the female partner's menstrual cycle. Dr. Manjushree administers medication to stimulate follicle growth and development. Once the follicles reach maturity, donor sperm is introduced.

The sperm sample is acquired from a reputed sperm bank after rigorous testing. The frozen sperm is thawed and inserted directly into the uterus using a painless IUI or intrauterine insemination procedure.

Two weeks post insemination, a blood test confirms if conception was successful. If you conceive, pregnancy care and monitoring follow as usual. The chance of success depends on the woman’s ovarian reserve and uterine receptivity.

Make an Empowered Decision with Insider Tips

Dr. Manjushree shares indispensable guidance for intended parents considering donor sperm treatment:

Seek counselling and evaluate your readiness: Counselling creates awareness and sets realistic expectations about social, ethical and emotional aspects. This enables empowered decision-making.

Understand legal rights of donor vs parents: The donor legally relinquishes all rights over the child. As legal parents, you have complete parental rights. Knowing this prevents future anxieties.

Emphasize medical safety: Reputed sperm banks rigorously screen donors and test samples for diseases before freezing. This minimizes risks for all parties.

Disclose to your child appropriately: While disclosure is personal, children have a right to know their genetic history. Expert guidance helps determine suitable times and approaches for the same.
