A member asked:
I am using 2 donors this cycle, inseminating each every other day, staggering days with each one. ie donor 1 on days 1,3, 5, etc. is this alright?

No! Not really: I'm sorry, this "sounds like" a good idea but it is not - this actually increases the chance of polyspermy (egg fertilized by more than one sperm) - which will not be a viable pregnancy. It might work but NOT a good idea. A fertility specialist can help you sort this thru, it would be worth talking with an expert. Good wishes!
