There are many self insemination kits now available on the market , and this is great , because couples who have a problem conceiving now have an effective treatment option which they can utilise in the privacy of their own bedroom , without having to go to a doctor , which obviously makes it much more affordable , available , accessible and comfortable .
However many patients don’t understand the difference between the kits , and are confused as to which one to buy.
One of the common problems with many of these kits, such as the Mosie Baby Kit, is that they use syringes for the insemination. While syringes make it easy to suck up the semen sample, it’s very hard to use the syringe to inject the semen sample into the vagina , because the nozzle of the syringe is very short . This makes it hard to insert enough of the syringe in the vagina , as a result of which most of the semen gets deposited in the outer third of the vagina . Many sperm die because of the acidity in the vagina , while a lot of the sample leaks out because the insemination was too superficial. This means the efficacy of the insemination goes for a toss . Now it’s true that a syringe is cheap and easily available, but it’s not really the appropriate device to use for this delicate technique. You also need to remember that the rubber bung of a regular medical syringe is toxic for the sperm. This is why while it’s possible to mechanically perform the procedure with a syringe, the pregnancy rates are often not very good.
In order to bypass this problem, some kits, such as the SUBHAG V Conceive Home Insemination KIT use convoluted devices which allow the user to deposit the sample closer to the cervix. While these work well if you are a gynecologist, they are quite fiddly, and most patients aren’t able to use them properly, which makes it quite frustrating, because they aren’t user friendly.
The Malpani self-insemination kit is the best option, because we use a sterile Pasteur Pipette for the insemination. This is specifically designed to be sperm friendly , because this is exactly the same pipette we use in the IVF laboratory to process the sperm !
This device is simple to use, and it’s easy to both load as well as expel the semen with one hand using the pipette, which makes it convenient and user-friendly. Not only is this device much better for the sperm because it does not contain any toxic rubber components, it’s also much easier to insert the semen as close to the cervix with this because it’s very long.
All you need to do is to use the gloved finger of the other hand to guide the pipette into the vagina, and deposit the semen as deeply as possible , so it’s close to the cervix. You then squeeze, to deposit the sample deep into the vagina, and then withdraw the pipette.
The beauty is that the pipette is safe, and cannot cause any harm because it is made of soft medical grade plastic !
Please reduce your stress levels when doing the self-insemination, by using a kit designed by an IVF specialist ! This will maximise your chances of getting pregnant quickly !
