IVF vs ICI ?

heatherheather Junior Member Junior Member
My wife and I bought 6 vials of IVF from donor 4514 our doctor said we could do an IVF or ICI. We wanted to do an IUI but since they are unwashed IVF they would have to wash it which would lower the sperm count? And we would have to use two vials. Maybe even 3?.. So we have canceled out the idea of IUI and are trying to see if we should do an ICI or IVF my wife who will be carrying she is 23 and healthy. They have run all the test and they didn't find anything wrong. I know IVF cost more and has a higher chance for multiples but does IVF really have a higher chance of pregnancies over ICI ? is ICI not really as good as IVF or even IUI? Any feed back would be great! Also has anyone been successful with donor 4514? Or has used this donor ?
