After the insemination

The only thing we recommend not doing, is swimming in chlorinated pool water as chlorine is toxic to germ cells.

If the man has sperm auto-antibodies coitus should be postponed 48 hours after insemination.

A few women experience that the menstruation arrives less than 14 days after insemination. If so it is recommended to add progesterone vaginally after the succeeding insemination in following cycles.

Pregnant?
2 weeks after insemination your are asked to analyse the urin. If positive we recommend scan 3 weeks later; if negative we will have planned what to do next which will be described in your file at the clinic.

All pregnant women are asked to fill in a form after delivery. Normally the form is handed out after last ultrasonography. It can also be downloaded here.

Bloodtest
We seldom perform blood tests; sometimes hCG are done in order to follow an early pregnancy. Seldom we analyse for content of progesterone after ovulation.
