Assisted reproduction techniques will be able to find artificial insemination, a method that consists of depositing sperm in women, at the right time of ovulation. This technique is practiced with specialized instruments and by expert doctors in fertility. Artificial insemination is used for fertility treatments, the sperm used in this method can have two origins: sperm from the husband or sperm from the donor.

The sperm of the husband or companion are used when the quality of the semen allows them to fulfill the function of swimming properly towards the egg and being fertilized.

Donor sperm are used when in the couple the man has sperm that do not meet the appropriate characteristics so that he approaches the egg and fertilizes it. Similarly, this type of sperm is useful for women without a partner who want to be mothers through fertility treatments.
