Ttc... free donors?

Kaela
Hey everybody. I've been ttc for 3 years with no success. My doctor recommended <a href="https://glowing.com/glow-fertility-program">IVF</a>, but I cannot afford it. I've just purchased an ovacue fertility monitor. I'm excited to use it, but have to wait until the start of my next cycle. (I'm on cd6.) I don't have any problems, the problem is the sperm. We tried with donor sperm from the bank and <a href="https://glowing.com/glow-fertility-program">iui</a>, but it was unsuccessful. My doctor reassured me that the rates of that working are low, anyway... We're considering finding a local man to donate for us (using one of those websites for connecting you with men willing) but I'm kinda scared to go that route. Anybody have any advice?
