Hi Phil

welcome to ff

if you and your wife are happy using donor sperm (counselling should be available to you both for this)
you will probably find that your wife could have straightforward donor insemination - which is similar to a smear test - no drugs are involved - your wife will probably be scanned and when she is ready for ovulation sperm is inserted round the opening of the cervix - this usually costs a few hundred pounds per month and therefore is much cheaper than ivf

if this is unsuccessful after a few cycles they may recommend that your wife tries iui which is drugs enhanced to enable your wife to produce two or three eggs per month and the sperm is inserted directly into the uterus at ovulation time.

after a few attempts if unsuccessful they will probably recommend ivf

hope this helps you both
god luck
