Sperm donation program helps heterosexual couples, same-sex couples and single women successfully conceive their baby.
Sperm donation programme of American Hospital Tirana provides a wide range of donors from different parts of the world; predominantly recruited among university students and accepted only under strict health and psychological testing and personal guidelines. Donors are screened for exceptional sperm quality and appropriate tolerance to freezing. Donors are also screened against genetic and sexual disease.
The sperm donor may be a friend or family member, or an anonymous donor matched to the recipient by the sperm bank or by our IVF team. Anonymous donors can be selected according to physical characteristics such as ethnicity, skin color and height.
Sperm count is confirmed during testing in which the sample is also frozen and thawed.
Our IVF department provide the newest technology, channeling the highest European storage standards, providing storage guarantee.
An alternative approach to male factor infertility is using a donor from one of the sperm bank. Once a donor is identified and the sperm is available, the female would most likely go through an IVF cycle in combination with ICSI.
American Hospital Tirana offer affordable sperm donation to many couples, single women and couples in same sex relationships the chance to build a family.
Those using sperm donation in our hospital may choose a donor known to them or may choose anonymous donor sperm from a sperm bank. Recipient couples can select a sperm donor to match their physical and intellectual characteristics, such as hair and eye color, blood type, ethnicity, and character traits to help match couples with the perfect donor.
The procedure for IVF with sperm donation is identical to traditional IVF. Eggs are collected from the woman following a cycle of fertility drugs to induce ovulation. The collected eggs are then fertilized using the donor sperm. ICSI is used in IVF treatments with sperm donation to increase the chance of successful fertilization.
