Is Fresh or Frozen Sperm Better?

When deciding between fresh or frozen sperm for fertility treatments, there are a number of factors to consider. Fresh sperm is often preferred in some cases of intrauterine insemination.^1,2 Moreover, it’s widely known that frozen sperm, however, may have a longer shelf life. Moreover, cryopreservation also doesn’t influence success rates when used in vitro fertilization (IVF) treatments.^{3, 4} In addition, frozen sperms are more rigorously tested and screened for any potential disorders than fresh sperms. Ultimately, the decision on which form of sperm to use in fertility treatments should be made by the couple in consultation with a fertility specialist.
