Depends: The method of assisted reproduction you should consider depends on age, fertility history and a host of other factors- hormone status, tubal function and lets not forget- the size of your wallet- that is just the truth, folks! if you are considering a single parenthood pregnancy- consult with a reputable fertility doc and they can go over your options. You may also want to consider egg freezing.

Depends : It depends on your age and the status of such factors as your fallopian tubes. For example, if you are around 40, you may do best with ivf. If you're young but have damaged tubes, you may need ivf. The treatment will depend on such factors as these. Good luck!

Yes: Yes, both of these are options. An evaluation by a fertility specialist will be able to tell you if artificial insemination with donor sperm or ivf is the best option.
