[Development of partner relations and of the child after successful therapeutic donor insemination].

The psychological development of couples and children was examined after successful therapeutic insemination by donor (TID). 222 couples were investigated by sending questionnaires to the families. 122 (55%) couples fulfilled our requests. The answers suggested that there was no deviation from the behaviour of the control groups concerning attitudes towards pregnancy and delivery, actual interrelation between wife and husband, degree of neurosis of the parents and children. The conclusion could be drawn that there was no need for more restriction on the TID provided that a good psychological diagnostic regarding the special TID-problems was performed before the insemination treatment.
