Self insemination, also known as at-home insemination, is when a woman inseminates herself with sperm from a donor. It’s cheaper than having treatment at a clinic, but there are a lot of important factors that need to be taken into consideration. We spoke to Rachel Cutting, Director of Compliance and Information at theSelf-insemination with donor sperm is when a woman inseminates herself, without a medical practitioner or the need to attend a fertility clinic.
