The most natural assisted reproduction technique.
Intrauterine Insemination (Artificial Insemination) is an assisted reproduction technique that consists of introducing into the woman’s uterus the most optimal sperm to fertilize her egg.
It is the most natural assisted reproduction treatment because fertilization takes place in the Fallopian tubes, not in the laboratory. It is particularly suitable for single women or young couples with sterility problems.

When the partner’s semen is used it is called Intrauterine Insemination (Artificial Insemination) by Husband. When donor semen is used, it is called Intrauterine Insemination (Artificial Insemination) by Donor.
In this type of insemination, the partner’s semen is used to cause the pregnancy. His best sperm are selected and inserted into the woman’s uterus when she is ovulating so that she gets pregnant naturally.
Intrauterine Insemination (Artificial Insemination) by husband is suitable in each of the following cases:
In this case, a donor’s semen is used to achieve pregnancy because the woman has no partner or her partner’s semen quality is low.
With this technique, the donor’s best quality sperm are selected and inserted into the woman’s uterus when she is ovulating. Thus, a sperm fertilizes the egg naturally, in the Fallopian tubes.
The Intrauterine Insemination (Artificial Insemination) treatment begins, like all treatments, with the initial medical consultation. It consists of two parts:
The doctor and patients meet and discuss their case. in order to make a diagnosis, the doctor will ask for some background and arrange for the relevant tests:
| For the woman: | For the man (if using the partner’s semen): |
|
|
the doctor evaluates the tests and explains the treatment in detail. the patients ask questions and sign the consent form in order to proceed.
After the initial information visit and medical tests, the Intrauterine Insemination (Artificial Insemination) treatment begins. it consists of five phases:
The woman takes hormones every day for a few days to stimulate the ovaries. the woman will report to the clinic so the doctor can check the ovaries using an ultrasound and do a test to determine hormone levels.
Once the ovaries are properly stimulated to produce one or two mature eggs, another hormone is administered to induce ovulation.
After 34-36 hours, the semen sample is obtained and sperm are selected. they are inserted into the woman’s uterus using a thin catheter.
Ten days after insemination, a blood pregnancy test (bhcg) is performed, or a urine test after 13 days.
Fourteen days after the pregnancy test, an ultrasound is performed in the office to check the heartbeat and conclude the treatment.
15-20% per cycle.
It’s not recommended because the quality of the woman’s eggs at this age has decreased considerably and the chances of pregnancy are very low. another reproductive treatment, such as in vitro fertilization, should be used instead.
No, it’s a quick, simple and painless technique. it’s done in the doctor’s office and doesn’t require anesthesia. after resting for 10 minutes, you will be able to resume your activities normally.
No, because all semen donors are anonymous by law, but we can guarantee maximum compatibility with the characteristics of the female recipient.
At Reproclinic all our donors are subject to thorough genetic tests to guarantee the absence of any type of disease.
The chances of getting pregnant are 15-20% per cycle. however, each case is different due to factors such as the woman’s age, the quality of the semen, the response to ovarian stimulation, the number of previous attempts and the thickness of the endometrium.
You can try again, since the pregnancy rate increases with the number of attempts up to the fourth insemination. or you can consider using in vitro fertilization (ivf).
They are two different treatments. Intrauterine Insemination (Artificial Insemination) is more natural than ivf because fertilization takes place inside the woman, like in a natural pregnancy. in the case of ivf, fertilization takes place in the laboratory and the embryo is transferred into the woman’s uterus.
