Artificial Insemination (AI) And Intrauterine Insemination (IUI)

   

Insemination is the introduction of semen into the uterus of the woman during sex. Natural insemination refers to insemination, which occurs during sex, while artificial insemination occurs without intercourse. Artificial insemination is assisted reproductive technology, mainly used to treat infertility. This procedure is considered the least invasive technique with fertility drugs.
Let's talk artificial insemination closer look:
   In essence, artificial insemination is used to help sperm to reach an egg from the female.
   It involves placing sperm donor sperm in the female genital tract by artificial means, so that the woman can be impregnated without sex. Is to place a dose of sperm into the uterus of a woman at the right time to maximize your chances of getting pregnant. It is used by women whose partner is sterile (ie. A genetic disease) or women without a male partner (ie, unique and lesbians).
   This fertility treatment can also be used for couples trying to conceive with semen allergies. Up to 25% of couples who have trouble conceiving can have sperm allergies. People allergic to semen, 20% and 40% is able to design with the help of insemination or treatment of artificial assisted reproductive technology.
   For male infertility, this technique is most commonly used when the male has a low number and low sperm motility, or if there is an incompatibility between the sperm and cervical mucus. It can also be used when the male partner is unable to ejaculate in the vagina of women because of impotence, premature ejaculation, or other medical conditions.
    This procedure can be applied to one of two options: intrauterine insemination and intracervical insemination. Intrauterine insemination (IUI) involves placing sperm (sperm or sperm donor, if the partner) directly uterus of women in the time of ovulation. The intracervical insemination (ICI) involves placing the sperm into the uterus of the female. IUI increases the chance of pregnancy because the sperm is placed directly into the uterus and not the cervix. This improves the delivery of sperm to the egg.
   Semen is either sperm or sperm that has been frozen and thawed freshly ejaculated. The male is advised to abstain from sex for 2-3 days before giving the sample to increase the sperm count. The male will provide a sperm sample 02.01 hours, usually by masturbation before the procedure.
   Sperm is washed, so that the sperm is separated from the seminal fluid and sperm quality is analyzed. After washing, the sperm is injected into the uterus with a small catheter. It only takes a few minutes, usually causes no discomfort to the woman, and the patient can resume normal activities immediately after the procedure.
  In some cases it may be necessary for the female to take medication to induce ovulation if the cycles are not regular. If pregnancy is not the result of the first intrauterine insemination, the procedure can be repeated in subsequent cycles.
 The woman is the genetic or biological mother and the sperm donor is the genetic father.
