What is artificial insemination ?

Artificial insemination in Tunisia is one of the techniques used by reproductive medicine when there is a fertility problem and which consists of placing a sample of sperm, previously prepared in the laboratory, inside the uterus of the woman in order to increase the potential of the sperm and the possibilities of fertilization of the ovum.

In this way, the distance separating the sperm from the ovum is shortened and makes it easier for the two to meet, thus increasing the chances of obtaining the desired pregnancy.

Unlike in vitro fertilization, it is not necessary to first extract the eggs from the woman. After the initial diagnosis, ovarian stimulation is scheduled and endometrial monitoring is performed to determine the ideal time to perform artificial insemination.

Who is artificial insemination is indicated for ?

• Couples of patients with infertility of unknown origin and with a young age.
• Couples in which the woman has ovulation problems that affect her fertility.
• In cases where the patient has an alteration in the cervix.
• Couples in which the man has mild or moderate sperm defects in sperm concentration or motility. These patients may need to perform a testicular biopsy.
• The ideal date is chosen according to the calendar of the menstrual cycle, and a model of ovarian stimulation and gynecological follow-up is stipulated by ultrasound.

How to prepare for artificial insemination ?

The first thing to do is a preoperative consultation to determine the most appropriate fertility treatment for you.

The gynecologist determines whether it is better to perform artificial insemination or in vitro fertilization.

The doctor will also run some tests to see if you are in good health and don’t have any medical problems that can affect you negatively during your pregnancy.

The doctor will look at your medical history to see if you have done any previous procedures or if you are taking any medication that needs to be stopped.

You will of course have to quit smoking and drinking alcohol before a month from the day of the operation.

What are ovarian stimulation and ovulation induction ?

This procedure is necessary to increase the chances of success and thus achieve pregnancy, since naturally a woman produces only one follicle – and therefore an egg – in each menstrual cycle.

In addition, for successful artificial insemination, at least one of the tubes must be permeable, and the male’s sperm must contain a minimum concentration of motile spermatozoa to allow the technique to be performed with guaranteed success.

This phase consists of stimulating the ovary by intramuscular injection of hormones to produce more eggs in the natural cycle, and its duration varies from 10 to 12 days.

During this phase of the treatment, serial ultrasounds will be performed, and the level of estradiol in the blood will be checked to verify that the growth and evolution of the follicles are within normal limits.

When we verify by means of vaginal ultrasound that the follicles have reached the right quantity and size, we plan the artificial insemination just about 36 hours after the administration of an HCG injection which must be administered to the patient at the time and on the day indicated by the doctor.

This is recommended, and it induces oocyte maturation and therefore ovulation.

Sperm preparation.

The preparation of sperm in artificial insemination consists of selecting and concentrating the spermatozoa with the best mobility.

To do this, the samples are processed by seminal formation or preparation techniques that allow the elimination of dead, immobile or slow-moving spermatozoa and optimize the quality of the sample that will be used for insemination.

This phase is accelerated when the patient needs donor sperm.

In these cases, the most suitable donor is selected for each case, and the sample is prepared until it is used.

Insemination.

The artificial insemination procedure is performed after inducing ovulation.

Unlike in vitro fertilization, sedation or a visit to the operating room is not necessary.

About 2 hours before, a sperm sample should be delivered to the andrology laboratory for preparation and training.

After placement of a speculum, the cannula is passed through the cervix allowing the sample to be introduced along with the semen inside the uterus.

After the process, the patient rests for a few minutes during the consultation, gets dressed and will be fixed about the date to perform the pregnancy test.

What happens after artificial insemination ?

After the operation you will be given gonadotropins which are mainly hormonal drugs that can help to stimulate the growth, development and ovulation of more of the egg.

Make sure that you follow a healthy diet and not do any physically demanding activities.

What are the results of artificial insemination in Tunisia ?

To achieve the expected result of artificial insemination, it is essential to meet the minimum requirements.

Otherwise, artificial insemination will not be effective and, therefore, will not allow the long-awaited reproductive process.

It is possible that during the first artificial insemination pregnancy will not be achieved, but during the second, third or fourth attempt. This is called the cumulative rate.

Among the factors that most influence the success or failure of the artificial insemination technique:

Women’s age.

The success rate decreases drastically from 37 to 39 years old.

The cause and duration of infertility.

Not in all cases where it is difficult to achieve pregnancy, artificial insemination is recommended.

The quality of the man’s sperm.

For artificial insemination, there must be enough sperm and they must move correctly to reach the egg.

The thickness of the endometrium.

Must be between 7 and 10 mm to ensure implantation.

Ovarian stimulation.

Not all women react the same way to hormonal drugs, and it is important to find the right drug and the right protocol.

The number of previous attempts.

The pregnancy rate increases with the number of attempts until the fourth insemination.

It has been seen that uterine contractions during insemination increase the likelihood of success.

The probability of pregnancy also increases if the insemination is done with donor sperm.

In a woman under 35, the pregnancy rate varies between 15 and 20% with the couple’s sperm, while in an artificial insemination donor (AID) the chance of success is greater than 30%.

What are the risk of artificial insemination ?

The patient who has undergone artificial insemination is also carefully monitored with blood tests and ultrasound to measure the growth of the ovary.

For this reason, the risk is very low, however, all medical procedures do carry some risk factor to them.

Artificial insemination in Tunisia is simple and very unlikely to cause problems.

However, this involves a previous process of ovarian stimulation that can lead to negative consequences such as:

• A multiple pregnancy, which is more risky than the single one.
• Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome due to an excessive response to drugs.
• Allergies.
• infections.

The doctor will discuss these potential risks with you in much more details and will instruct you on how to be avoid them, they will be with you through out your whole journey so you can contact your doctor when ever you want.
