Artificial insemination involves depositing a semen sample, previously prepared in the laboratory, into the uterine cavity using a thin catheter. This technique is performed during ovulation to facilitate the union between the egg and sperm, thereby increasing the chances of fertilization.
Under physiological conditions, each month and alternately, a follicle grows in the ovary, containing an egg inside. During ovulation, the ovary releases this egg, which is picked up by the fallopian tube, where, if applicable, sperm will arrive to fertilize it and subsequently implant it in the uterine cavity.
Before artificial insemination, the ovaries must be stimulated with hormonal treatment (FSH) to induce the growth of one ore a few follicles and the ovulation of an egg. However, careful monitoring of this cycle is necessary to assess the ovary's sensitivity to medication, avoid excessive responses that could increase the risk of multiple pregnancies, and adapt the ovulation induction protocol to each response.
Before insemination, the semen sample must be prepared in the laboratory using different sperm preparation techniques, to obtain sperm of better quality and greater mobility.
According to WHO (World Health Organization) recommendations, sexual abstinence of 2 to 7 days is advisable.
The final goal is to obtain the best sperm and induce the necessary physiological changes (sperm capacitation) to facilitate egg fertilization.
It is a quick, simple, painless technique that does not require sedation.
It involves loading the processed semen sample into a thin catheter. The gynecologist will deposit it through the cervix into the patient's uterus.
After a few minutes of rest, the patient can leave the clinic and resume normal activities.
