The insemination method is up to the recipient. Artificial Insemination that can be done at home is the IVI (Intravaginal insemination) method which was used by my first recipient at her home and inducing an orgasm afterwards after each insemination with positive results and is the method I have used on all the others I have helped. Other methods MUST BE doctor assisted at a clinic such as ICI (Intracervical insemination), IUI (Intrauterine insemination) and IVF (In Vitro Fertilization).

Artificial insemination is now more commonly referred to as,IUI, Intrauterine insemination. It is a procedure used for couples with unexplained infertility, minimal male factor infertility, and women with cervical mucus problems. It is a procedure of using the husband's or donor sperm, washing and treating the sperm and injecting it into the woman during the time of ovulation. IUI

Artificial Insemination is allowed to be used as a breeding tool for animals that will be included in the Randall herdbook. The Registry encourages the use of live bulls to the extent possible as a means of increasing the number of sires used and thereby protecting the diversity of the gene pool. However AI can accomplish specific breeding objectives and may be the only option for breeders who are unable to keep a bull.

Once used, these supplies could harbor bacterial growth and contaminate or affect any specimens used with the same supplies at a later time. Order one set per specimen.

The number of straws required per insemination is determined by thawing a straw and rating its post thaw motility. For a frozen semen breeding you want to have a minimum of 100 million motile sperm per insemination. Each straw holds 50 million sperm but not all of them will survive the freezing process, hence the evaluation of "post thaw motility". The higher the percent post thaw motility the fewer straws are required.

The core of this method consists of facilitating the way of a sperm to the egg by injecting sperm, after special laboratory preparation, by means of a thin tube into the uterine cavity during the period of ovulation. The basic prerequisite for the application of this method is the preserved permeability of the Fallopian tubes. IUI can have a therapeutic effect in cases of disorders in male fertility, immunologically conditioned infertility and also in other indications.

Culture medium is layered on top. The specimen is left in the incubator at 37 degrees Celsius for one to two hours. The highly motile sperms will swim up into the culture medium. The enriched upper layer is then removed and sent to the clinic where it is flushed into the uterus using a flexible catheter. This procedure is performed during the time of ovulation in order to increase the chance of conception.

To be honest, we cannot give you any specific treatment plans in advance, Dr. Tippet will review your daily blood tests daily and make his clinical decisions based on those results. He will determine the timing of these procedures to enhance your chance of conception. Be prepared to be available for testing at least 7 times during the first two weeks of each cycle.

Most doctors will do an intra-uterine insemination (IUI) the day after the LH surge, or about 36 hours after it is detected. With a vaginal insemination, or an intra-cervical insemination (ICI) in someone with good fertile mucus, the day of the surge may be preferable. Many doctors are now doing two inseminations per cycle. Check the IUI FAQ.

First, obtain a few 5cc syringes and specimen cups. Don't use a syringe larger than 5cc; it's not necessary. Sperm sample volumes range from .5cc to 4cc, with an average of about 1cc to 2cc. Also, in case you're wondering, don't use a needle with the syringe. It is dangerous and would likely damage the sperm, not to mention you! The syringe and specimen container should be clean and dry. If you wash and re-use them, be sure there are absolutely no water droplets left anywhere.

Insemination is a simple procedure, similar to a pelvic examination for PAP screening. Beyond simple discomfort, it is sometimes accompanied by mild uterine contractions (similar to menstrual pain), light staining and increased secretions.

Quality of the semen and timing of the bitch are key elements for success with using frozen semen. The largest litter we have had from a frozen semen insemination was a litter of 13 Irish Wolfhound puppies from semen that was frozen 10 years ago!

Artificial insemination involves collecting and processing semen and depositing it directly into the woman's vagina, cervical canal, or uterine cavity. The sperm may be from the husband or male partner or from a donor. With intrauterine insemination, the semen is delivered directly into the uterine cavity by means of a catheter. The procedure is quick and generally pain-free.

Unless your own vet has experience with chilled and frozen semen artificial insemination we would strongly advise you to use a vet specialising in these areas. Please click on the link below for AI vets known to us. AI is not a particularly complicated procedure, but to optimise the chances of conception is it preferable to use a vet with experience of the procedures required, who has the necessary specialised equipment and who has experience with the timing and ordering of semen from abroad.

Quite effective when timed with the heat period and vaginal smears to pinpoint the time at which the bitch should be fertile.

The insemination consists in placing the sperm preparation inside the uterus a few hours before the ovulation. The patient's doctor will establish the time of ovulation and subsequently evaluate the day when the insemination will take place. To do so, three methods are used: vaginal ultrasound, blood test and urine test. Stimulation with oral medicine or daily sub-coetaneous injections can be prescribed.

Generally, an intrauterine insemination cycle starts with taking a medication to stimulate the ovaries. There are also ultrasounds to follow the development of the treatment and plan the date of insemination. Ovulation is initiated by medication and the insemination takes place 36 hours later. The day of the insemination, we perform an injection of the sperm, which has been washed to obtain the best quality sperm, into the uterus of the patient.

The first step would be to have a vasovasectomy to return fertility. If this intervention is successful, fertilisation can take place naturally or by insemination. If the reversal can not be performed, we can proceed with collecting sperm directly from the epidydimis or testicle with an aspiration technique. (PESA - TESA). However, the quantity recovered in this manner in not sufficient for intrauterine insemination, and only IVF is possible.

insemination dose" varies from stallion to stallion, but is often 8 straws. The aim is to provide 300 million motile post-thaw sperm. Some vets and technicians use half a dose before ovulation and half after. You will receive one covering certificate per dose purchased.

Today's breeding technology provides horse owners with more options than were available in the past. Artificial insemination and semen preservation techniques make it possible to ship stallion semen to mares nearly anywhere in the country. Success with transported semen will depend on the careful reproductive management of both stallion and mare. Only three registries do not currently allow AI: Thoroughbred, Miniature Horse, and Standard Jack and Jennet Registry.

Unlike fresh semen, which can live in the reproductive tract of a bitch for 5-7 days, frozen semen will only live 12-20 hours once thawed. It must preserve all it's energy to penetrate and fertilize the eggs, so the best conception rates (90% in our practice) are achieved with surgical insemination, where the semen is injected directly into the uterine horn. Since vaginal insemination has statistically low conception rates (under 20%), we do not suggest using your valuable semen in this fashion.

IUI or intra uterine insemination is an in-office procedure that is used to treat a variety of fertility conditions that may include cervical mucus problems, diminished sperm motility and ovulation dysfunction. The procedure involves ovulation monitoring either by ultrasound examination or ovulation predictor kits, sperm washing and insemination.

The very word 'estate' conjures up images of mansions, limos, etc. In reality, most people have an estate -- be it large or small. Your 'Estate' is just the stuff you own when you die! While you are alive, you sell your stuff at a yard sale. When you die, the same stuff is sold at an Estate sale!
