Donor Sperm IVF

Donor Sperm IVF at the International Fertility Institute of Hawaii

donor_sperm_zoaMany countries have restrictions on the use of donor sperm.  At the International Fertility Institute of Hawaii, we utilize donor sperm from many different sperm banks for our In Vitro Fertilization and Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection procedures.

Prior to considering donor sperm IVF in Hawaii, you should contact our office for advice. The International Fertility Institute of Hawaii works with only accredited sperm banks.

When Ordering Your Specimen

  • Contact your IVF Coordinator at the International Fertility Institute of Hawaii prior to ordering or purchasing any sperm.
  • Purchase the appropriate specimen from your selected sperm bank
  • Complete the Donated Sperm Acquisition form provided by the sperm bank and bring or fax to us (808.262.3744)

Samples are ordered from the sperm bank by the patient. Many patients order 3-4 samples for more than one cycle at a time to save on shipping costs. However, usually one sample is sufficient for one insemination or IVF cycle.

As required by the FDA, semen obtained from reputable sperm banks has undergone rigorous screening for sexually transmitted diseases (STD) and a health risk questionnaire is completed by the donor and reviewed by trained personnel. The semen is frozen and quarantined for six months and the donor is then re-tested for STDs. If he is not infected, the semen samples are made available for use.

Types of Donor sperm samples:

For IVF cycles, we can use many different types of specimens.  Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART) samples are now being offered by many sperm banks. These samples have lower total motile sperm and may only be used with IVF (in-vitro fertilization).  However, unwashed IUI, ICI, or ART vials may also be used with IVF.

Shipping Your Specimen

Please do not ship your donor sperm specimen without coordinating with your IVF Coordinator and informing them of when your samples will be arriving.

Samples need to arrive between 8:00am and 4:00pm Monday through Friday, excluding holidays. There can be no weekend or holiday deliveries.

Testimonials

We have a girl and wanted a boy as well. We used PGD at the International Fertility Institute of Hawaii and now have the baby boy that we wanted. Dr. Frattarelli is a wonderful physician. He has great staff that make the experience easy and successful.
China
I was unable to use donor sperm in Japan.  After searching the internet, I decided to seek Dr. Frattarelli’s help for 3 reasons: 1.  His outstanding success rates.  2.  His experience with international patients.  3. The proximity to Japan.  I have often vacationed in Hawaii so coming to Oahu for a 2 week stay and getting pregnant was easy.   I did one IVF cycle with donor sperm and had success on the first cycle.  I also have frozen embryos to use in the future if I choose.  Thank you Dr. Frattarelli.
Japan
Dr Frattarelli and Staff, After attempting so many times with other clinics, I still cannot believe that I am pregnancy. I was able to get pregnancy thanks to your clinic. Your staff always made us relax and comfortable with their bright friendly smiles. Having Japanese speaking nurses that understand the IVF process really helped us understand the medical aspects of the treatment. I am so happy. Thank you.
Japan
When I contacted the International Fertility Institute of Hawaii I was immediately impressed by the congeniality of the staff. I research the clinic prior to contacting them but the first impression was one of a clinic that cared. I had a Skype consult with Dr. Frattarelli. After the consult, we visited his clinic for a day and discussed the upcoming cycle. We had attempted IVF multiple times before without success and wanted to do PGD. In our first attempt, we had 2 normal embryos. We transferred one and are currently pregnant.
Korea
We had attempted IVF multiple times in the past. In Canada, the ability to get good donors for IVF is limited. We heard about Dr. Frattarelli’s success rates at the International Fertility Institute of Hawaii. Our first donor cycle with a single embryo transfer was unsuccessful but we had enough embryos to freeze 8 blastocyst-embryos. We returned and underwent a second single embryo transfer that produced a pregnancy. We now have a beautiful baby girl and 7 more embryos frozen.
Canada
I was so tearful with joy when I first met my baby girl after C-section.  It was the greatest moment of my life because it has been such a long journey of infertility treatment.   Our happiness and success are because of you, Dr. Frattarelli, and all of your staff.  We are so happy to see our baby sleeping in peace… Thank you so much
M.N. - Japan
We had tried IVF multiple times in Australia without success and needed donor egg.  We found Dr. Frattarelli in Hawaii, research his clinic, and decided to use his services.  We are so happy because in just one donor egg IVF attempt we are now pregnant and have extra embryos frozen.   Dr. Frattarelli and Staff –we cannot adequately express our gratitude and we were so lucky to have found you!
Australia
We loved that we could take a vacation to Hawaii and get the Donor Egg IVF cycle with PGD that we needed at the same time. Dr. Frattarelli and the International Fertility Institute of Hawaii were very accommodating. Their expertise was evident throughout the process. The cycle proceeded very smoothly. Now we are pregnant with twins and have 3 embryos frozen as well! Thanks IFIH!
Japan
Thank you to the staff at IFIH! You made the process easy to understand and ultimately very successful. We will forever be thankful for your help in allowing us to build our family.
New Zealand
Dr. Frattarelli, Thank you very much for taking care of me. The treatments I received in Japan failed many times.  During the treatments in Japan, I experienced a lot of frustration towards to results and process.  I was looking forward to receiving a treatment in Hawaii because I felt like that I might have different outcome which I was unable to get in Japan.   Your facility in Hawaii is  very nice and I felt very comfortable.   I felt as if I was in a dream.   Your clinic is very beautiful.  While I received treatment, I visiting the clinic every day.   I really appreciated that physicians and staff as they were knowledgeable and very kind to me.   Your clinic is the place where our dream came true!   During my present…
