I have a little stomach pain after artificial insemination

Artificial insemination is a common way of conception nowadays. For people who want to get pregnant through normal methods, the effect of artificial insemination is relatively good. It is normal to experience some mild pain after artificial insemination. If the pain is severe, you need to go to the hospital for treatment! Next, I will introduce you to the relevant knowledge about artificial insemination in detail!

1. What is artificial insemination?

Artificial insemination is a method of artificially injecting male semen into the female cervix or uterine cavity to assist conception. Mainly used for male infertility. There are two types of artificial insemination: artificial insemination between spouses and artificial insemination between non-spouses. If the male has sexual organ abnormalities, such as short penis, hypospadias, impotence, premature ejaculation, etc., or the female has cervical stenosis, unexplained infertility, etc., artificial insemination can be used between spouses. If the man's vas deferens is blocked or he has no sperm, artificial insemination between non-spouses can be used. If the man is over 50 years old, has abnormal semen or urinary tract inflammation, or the woman has genital malformations or other systemic diseases, artificial insemination is not suitable.

2. Does artificial insemination hurt?

Artificial insemination is a non-invasive treatment method that does not require surgery and is generally painless. A small number of women may feel a feeling of fullness in the lower abdomen or uterine contraction-like pain after insemination, which may last for about 30 minutes to 1 hour and then be relieved. This is a normal phenomenon. Artificial insemination is an operation that requires high precision, high laboratory environment, and high experience. If the operation is performed by an unqualified person, there will definitely be procedural or technical defects and the success rate will be low. Therefore, artificial insemination should pay attention to the selection.

With the increasing number of infertility diseases and the diversity of causative factors, treatment is still difficult, so more and more women go to the hospital for artificial insemination to assist pregnancy. Experts say that artificial insemination is usually successful only when the male has weak sperm and the female is in good condition, such as having mature follicles and unobstructed fallopian tubes.

3. Precautions for artificial insemination

1. The sperm donor must undergo a comprehensive examination, including hepatitis B surface antigen, blood type, and exclusion of other infectious diseases. His appearance and intelligence should also be understood. After the semen of the same sperm donor has caused five pregnancies, it cannot be used again to avoid the possibility of their offspring intermarrying.

2. If the woman has systemic diseases or infectious diseases, severe reproductive organ hypoplasia or deformity, or severe cervical erosion, she cannot undergo artificial insemination.

3. Artificial insemination with sperm from a sperm donor may cause some ethical and legal issues because it is not a combination of sperm and eggs from both husband and wife. On the one hand, artificial insemination with sperm from a donor solves the problem of infertility caused by male factors and can also avoid passing on the man's genetic diseases to the offspring, playing a role in eugenics; but on the other hand, because artificial insemination uses sperm from a "third party", it may destroy the unity of the marriage and family or the love between husband and wife and the care of their children. Therefore, please be mentally prepared before accepting it.
