donor insemination

Third-party conception method

Donor insemination is a fertility procedure in which sperm from a donor—rather than a partner—is used to achieve pregnancy.

The sperm is typically placed directly in the uterus or cervix.

The donor may be known to the recipient or anonymous through a sperm bank: They conceived through donor insemination after learning he was infertile.
