hi there, my wife and i are curious as to why sperm here is priced the way it is {example. ICI $700 IUI $800) we do know all about IUI, as to thats the route we are going to take. im more so curios as to why its so expensive and not the $300 price range we were use to when we started our baby journey in 2013. i would really appreciate it if someone would give me a breakdown of pricing for sperm vials only. thanx in advance

    Hi P -

    IUI vials are currently either $790 or $890 depending if you choose an anonymous or open donor. Since IUI vials are washed, they are priced higher than ICI vials which are $690 or $790.

    In 2013, our IUI vials were $650 or $750 and our ICI vials were $550 or $650.

    Since 2013, we opened up a branch in Houston and we now recruit donors from 5 different cities. Our catalog has grown by almost 100 donors over the last year. It's important to remember that less than 1% of applicants become CCB donors. This means that we are eliminating 99% of potential donors during the screening process. We've added additional genetics and laboratory staff to support our increasing catalog.

    Our goal is to maintain the highest levels of quality and service, and that means adjusting our pricing as our operating costs increase.

    Regards,
