Hi
I am new to this site and using forums so hope i have posted in the right place? I just wanted to get in touch with people who have experience of using donor sperm, in particular in Liverpool.
I have just had my second failed icsi cycle which will also sadly be my last due to severe male factor. We had our follow up appt today and the consultant advised us that donor would be the best way to go. This is something that i have always been very scared about partly for all the common reasons connected to getting pregnant with another mans sperm, not having my husbands child...helping the child to understand their genetic origins and telling/explaining with a lot of worry about how that child will feel when it is older.
I would be really interested to hear from people who have perhaps had successful treatments with donor sperm who can perhaps reassure me a little as i feel petrified!
Also, if anyone can advise on waiting times at Liverpool. The consultant said that they sometimes import sperm from abroad if a match is not available but again, this really worries me.
Any advice or experiences that people would be willing to share would be really helpful to me. I currently feel so low with everything and do not know what to do for the best.
Thank you.
