If every donor has the ability to contribute to a pregnancy, then why do some cost more than others? Maybe I'm missing something.

    Hi aj -

    All donors cost the same. Different vial preparations (IUI vs. ICI vs. ART) cost different amounts. Some donors may not have certain vial types available.

    IUI = Specimen washed prior to freeze. Ready for physician insemination without additional wash.

    ICI = Specimen not washed. For use in at-home insemination. Can also be washed and used by physician for IUI insemination.

    ART = For use in IVF only.

    Regards,

    All the donors on my favorites list are listed as $585 for IUI premium. Donor 12061 is $685 for IUI premium. I have come across a few that are $685 for IUI vials.

    Ah...Yes. Open Donors are an additional $100 per vial.

    Sorry, I misunderstood what you were asking.
