Better scheduled coitus or artificial insemination?

-

When a couple has been trying to get a pregnancy for some time and it does not arrive, they must consider what their reproductive options are based on the causes that are causing the infertility.

The simplest strategy to get pregnant when there are no serious problems of sterility is the scheduled intercourse, that is, having sex in the fertile days of the woman.

However, the effectiveness of this method is not much greater than that of sexual intercourse and, therefore, many couples doubt whether it is really worth trying or whether it is better to perform an artificial insemination (AI) directly.

Below you have an index with all the points that we will discuss in this article.

Scheduled intercourse or artificial insemination: Which is better?

Which technique of assisted reproduction is better?

When faced with an infertility situation, the first step is to go to an assisted reproduction clinic to do a fertility study on both partners.

Depending on the results obtained, the specialist will inform about the most appropriate way to become a parent, since the natural way has not worked.

Fertility study of the couple

There are several fertility treatments to look for pregnancy, although in general, there is no technique that is better than another. Everything depends on the conditions of each couple.

At first, if all fertility tests go well, the couple will begin with low complexity techniques or non-invasive techniques, seeking the closest approach to natural pregnancy.

The most common assisted reproduction techniques, from least to greatest complexity are the following: programmed intercourse, artificial insemination and in vitro fertilization (IVF).

IVF is already considered a more invasive technique, since it is necessary to make a small surgical intervention to obtain the ovules.

This represents an increase of 8% in the use of assisted reproduction techniques with respect to the previous year, which shows that more and more couples need help to have the opportunity to become parents.
