Questions concerning Artificial Insemination

[kkase]

I was wondering if anyone knows the success rate of artificial insemination using a donor sperm for a 33 year old female with no apparent fertility problems. I am not taking any drugs and so I am using a ovulation kit (peeing on stick) and then the next day I go in and they do the insemination. Does anyone have info on this?

I used the meds to increase my chances;  I don't know about Tanker.

Thanks! That is awesome for you. Did you use those meds becasue you had a hard time ovulating or just to increase your odds?

I forgot to mention.. the first IUI I took clomid and hcg trigger shot, but I was only on half of the lowest dose of clomid (25 mg).  The second IUI I was on 12.5 mg of clomid and hcg trigger shot.  The last time I did not take clomid but did do the hcg trigger shot...

Best of luck to you!!

The way I understand it is, IUI gives you the same chances as a couple using natural conception methods who do not have infertility issues.. So under normal conditions, I think you have around a 20% chance each cycle with timed intercourse.  

I have unexplained infertility..  I have had 3 IUIs and got pg 2 out of the 3 times..  

Good luck to you!!
