Artificial Insemination --- Safe Way to Motherhood

Artificial insemination is a medical process of putting semen into the ovary of a woman for the purpose of fertilisation. It is artificial as the normal way to fertilise a woman is to directly ejaculate semen into her vagina or through the oviduct.

Eltham, Australia (prHWY.com) December 19, 2012 - Artificial insemination is a medical process of putting semen into the ovary of a woman for the purpose of fertilisation. It is artificial as the normal way to fertilise a woman is to directly ejaculate semen into her or through the oviduct. It is the medical alternative to natural insemination by which a woman does normally become pregnant. The occasion for artificial insemination arises when natural insemination fails to fertilise a woman. It is actually a part of fertility treatment used in cases of humans and animals. While it is a common practice in case for fertilising dairy cattle and pigs,it is not a natural practice for human beings. Artificial insemination employs assisted reproductive methods, fresh or frozen sperm from outside and animal husbandry techniques

A woman takes recourse to artificial insemination when she wants to be a mother but does not have a male partner or dislikes male company. There are cases when the male partner is sexually inhibited or has failed for a considerable time to impregnate the woman by normal sexual intercourse. Women may have problems with the cervix such as cervical scarring, cervical blockage from endometriosis. Some of them have thick cervical mucus and the sperm cannot pass through the cervix. Those women require intrauterine or intra cervical insemination for pregnancy. A surrogate mother, who is contracted to be a genetic mother, also needs artificial insemination for pregnancy.

Artificial insemination may be done by fresh or frozen sperm taken from the woman's husband or by preserved sperm from a donor at random or from a donor of the woman's choice. Artificially fertilised embryos may also be used. There are sperm banks where sperm donors donate sperms. Generally sperms remain alive for six months. If a woman's male partner or husband produces too few sperm count, external source for sperm has to be explored. Sperm donors, too, have to go through examinations before they donate. Their identity is recorded as the beneficiary has the right to know whose sperm is going to give her a baby. The donors are instructed by sperm banks not to ejaculate for two to three days before donating sperm. Then the sperm count remains good, and the risk factor is reduced.

The sperm is collected through masturbation or by the use of an electrical stimulator. A collection condom is used to store the sperm initially. Then it is transferred to a container with chemicals which extends the sperm to be transferred to several vials for numerous inseminations. The sperm is then frozen and quarantined for up to six months. The donor will again be tested before the sperm is used for fertility.

The woman's preparation for artificial insemination is no less complex. The doctor observes the woman's menstrual cycle closely. The period of ovulation is determined by tracking body temperature and changes in mucus or by using ovulation kits. When an ovum is released, the semen has to be inserted into the or the uterus. She becomes a mother.
