For the technique to be most effective the ovary is stimulated in a gentle way so that they mature 1 o 2 follicles and thus the moment of ovulation is perfectly controlled. On the same day, a sperm recovery is performed from the couple's or donor's semen sample., eliminating immotile sperm and stimulating the mobility of the rest. Finally, They are concentrated in a sterile medium and placed in the uterus using a cannula.. The process is painless and the patient can go home after being a few 10 minutes at rest. Step by step procedure FIRST Stimulation of the ovarian cycle and induction of ovulation: This stage is not strictly necessary but it does increase the chances of success in reproductive treatment.. Naturally, the woman develops a follicle with an egg in each menstrual cycle, in some cases none. By stimulating the ovarian cycle, it is guaranteed that the ovary develops 1 o 2 follicles and, therefore, eggs. Stimulation of the ovarian cycle consists of two phases, a first in which drugs are administered that inhibit the body's own hormones that regulate the ovarian cycle, avoiding interference with subsequent stimulation; and a second, where follicular proliferation is induced by the administration of exogenous hormones. The route of administration of these drugs is usually subcutaneous and can be done by the patient.. During the ovarian stimulation stage, ultrasound controls and blood tests are performed to monitor the growth and evolution of the follicles.. . SECOND Ovulation induction: once the follicles have reached an adequate number and size, through the subcutaneous administration of the HCG hormone, The maturation of the eggs and ovulation will be promoted 36-48 hours after its administration.. THIRD Once insemination is scheduled, synchronizes with the receipt of the semen sample, which has to be processed one hour before insemination. The preparation of the seminal sample consists of selecting and concentrating the sperm with the best mobility.. Training and seminal preparation techniques are used that allow dead sperm to be eliminated., immobile or slow and optimize the quality of the sample to be used for insemination. ROOM Artificial insemination is a process that does not require hospital admission and is performed in the same gynecological consultation.. Once the semen sample has been processed in the andrology laboratory, it is introduced into an insemination catheter designed especially for this process.. The gynecologist is the one who introduces this catheter until it reaches the uterus., through ultrasound support, where you will deposit the seminal sample. For which patients is it indicated??

• Couples in which the man has poor semen quality or absence of sperm.
• Couples in which the man is a carrier of a hereditary genetic disease that cannot be detected in the embryos.
• Women without a partner or with a female partner.
• Sero-discordant couples.
• Other factors: factor coital, etc.
