IVF with Donor Sperm

IVF with donor sperm is yet another option that broadens the scope of possibilities for couples and individuals. In circumstances where male infertility is a concern or for single women and same-sex female couples, this procedure uses sperm from a selected donor to fertilize the retrieved eggs.

Similar to traditional IVF, this medical technique involves combining a donor's eggs with healthy donor sperm in the laboratory in order to create a viable embryo that is subsequently implanted into the receiver’s uterus.

Pricing

$14,900 (includes ICSI, genetic testing and frozen embryo transfer)

Your Journey

Our process sets us apart from traditional fertility clinics. At every step, you'll encounter a distinctive approach—from transparent pricing to virtual monitoring. We'll be with you throughout this entire experience.

Step 1: Fertility Consult Call

Meet with a Sama fertility doctor who can answer pressing questions, share success rates, and guide you through your journey.

Step 2: Fertility Tests & Lab Results Call

Complete diagnostic blood testing to determine whether you'll be a good candidate for IVF.

Step 3: Care Planning Call

Meet with a member of our care team to understand pricing and process, who is available to help, and how you can reach them.

Step 4: Sperm Donor Selection

Work with a selection of sperm banks to identify the sperm donor that is best for you. All sperm collected by a sperm bank is tested for quality, then frozen and stored.

Step 5: Ovarian Simulation

Take medications that encourage your ovaries to produce more mature eggs than they naturally would. We'll track your egg development with blood tests and ultrasounds, conducted either at home (using a portable ultrasound) or through a local OBGYN.

Step 6: Ovulation and Egg Retrieval

Once you've produced enough mature eggs, receive a hormone injection to induce ovulation and release the mature eggs. After 36 hours, visit one of our best-in-class facilities, where a Sama doctor will retrieve your eggs.

Step 7: Embryo Creation and Testing

After retrieval, each egg is inseminated with a single sperm through a process known as intracytoplasmic sperm injection, or ICSI. Genetic testing, included in the cost of care, is conducted on six embryos to identify any genetic abnormalities which might harm you or your embryos. Only healthy embryos with high chances of successful IVF pregnancies are chosen for transfer.

Step 8: Embryo Transfer

Once a single, healthy embryo is identified, it's time for the embryo transfer. Transfers take place at a Sama clinic and are carried out by a fertility doctor. Any healthy embryos that are left over are frozen for future use or donation.

Step 9: Pregnancy Testing and Monitoring

About two weeks after the transfer, you'll take a pregnancy test. If the test is positive, we'll have you take another test shortly after to confirm the pregnancy is progressing well. If the pregnancy test is negative, we are here to provide support. We'll partner with you to explore the best next steps for your family building journey.

Step 10: Embryo Storage

Any healthy embryos that aren't implanted can be stored for future use. Sama has a bespoke partnership with TMRW, the world's first automated, proprietary storage management platform. Storage is available at $600 a year.
