You need to order at least two straws (one straw from each Sperm Donor). By having chosen 2 Sperm Donors you have done all you could to give yourself the best chance for success. Some egg+sperm combinations may work out better than others. When you use a donated sperm, also use the benefits of it – opportunity to be free from an obligation to use certain genetic material!
The number of motile sperm cells per straw can be minimal, since we need just several nice sperm cells for ICSI. Hence you can choose very affordable sperm options.
We ask you to make your choice at least two months prior to your Embryo Transfer.
