Hello Everybody,

I thought this would be a good place to post this so that I get the most insight.

I am a sterile man (can't father children) I don't know how this happened, I am 38 years old and have been married for 3 years. My wife has been tested and she can have children.

We have to use donor sperm....! I want to know if this is alright? I know that some people I have spoken to think it is and other do not. I am curious to hear what you all think? the community?

please give me your thoughts as I am very confused as to what is right and what is not

thank you and God Bless

So sorry about your unfortunate incident but I have to be very blunt here:

Why don’t you seek the option of adopting children rather than going through this IVF money-spending thrift.

You might as well get your wife laid by another dude and make it a one-time affair.

I’m just wary about the stress you’re going thru

You shouldn't have told anybody you know because some people are very judgemental and pretentious. Go around acting like their life is perfect and their doo doo doesn't stink.

There is nothing wrong with getting a sperm donor. You and your wife should go ahead and have your child. I don't think your wife should sleep with someone else like someone suggested on this thread. It should be a purely business transaction. The sperm donor shouldn't know your family and you shouldn't know him outside of verifying the quality of sperm that you are getting

Yeah either adoption or sperm donation are ok

Sperm donation may be better if your family/ particular community are likely to be against bringing a child that is not blood-related to you into your family

Adoption may be a bit too exposing undecided

Im sorry for your situation OP. Hope you find a solution soon

Oh I just saw your new post. Good luck (:

This is your personal matter.

You are welcome.

You are a good man. Some men when they hear sterility, may even lash out against the person closest to them i.e their wives. Your acting selflessly and banding together with your wife to solve the problem is commendable

Just to clarify,

the scan that I uploaded was a scan of the fertialised eggs being placed in my wife.

This is no scam / hoax... I am simply telling people the journey that I am on. I am still sterile, we used donor sperm.

We are going for the blood test in 90 min to see if the 2 eggs have implanted and if she is pregnant.

I dont work for any clinic.

This is not the type of conversation you can have at a dinner party....

to all of you who have supported us I am grateful, for all of you who think I am something else...shame on you.
you have no idea the emotional rollercoaster this is
I will update every single one of my threads if that makes you all happy, I simply wanted the most insight and to get the most support I could.

God Bless
