Kentucky Donor Insemination Law
There is no prohibition against unmarried women undergoing donor insemination in Kentucky law.
State law provides that the birth certificate for a child born as a result of artificial insemination be issued pursuant to a section of the law allowing an unmarried woman to leave the father of the child unnamed on the birth certificate.
Another law provides for testing of donor semen and indicates that a physician may be necessary to supervise the procedure.
