IUI vs IVF donor sperm

What’s the difference between the two types? My first baby was conceived through IVF and we really want to go for another try but the donor we picked now only has IUI sperm. Really don’t want to pick a different donor. Any way we can use IUI sperm for IVF procedure? I’m new to this! Help!

Maca root

Any success stories of using Maca root to conceive? I came off the pill in December and not getting pregnant. I have low libido which really isn’t helping but I’m confident I’ve caught ovulation in previous months.

IUI with donor

Is there anyone going through the IUI process using a sperm donor? If so, how long did it take you before getting pregnant? I know they say it can some months before pregnant, but now I'm thinking how long should I stick with this same donor.
