Roseous.com - Baby Tubes and Artificial Insemination, What's the Difference? Maybe you've done everything you know to get offspring. Starting from the simplest is to try to relax and pray until fertility and hormone therapy. Unfortunately, until now the baby does not come. Until finally, there is a friend suggested to follow the program of baby tube (in vitro fertilization) or artificial insemination (artificial insemination). You are confused, what is the difference between the two and what are the advantages and disadvantages of each of these two medical ways.

Difference

Baby tube program is basically a procedure of taking a mature egg from a woman and then reunited with a partner's sperm for conception to occur outside the body. The second meeting took place in a petri dish. After the egg is fertilized and becomes an embryo, the embryo is inserted into the mother's womb to develop into a perfect baby there. Baby tube programs are more complex than artificial insemination procedures.

While artificial insemination is the best sperm selection procedure ejaculation results by means of sperm washing. Selected sperm are released into the cervix through the help of a catheter. After that, it's up to how the sperm reaches the egg in the fallopian tube. Two weeks after the process of artificial insemination is done, the patient must come for examination to know the success of this procedure.

IVF is usually recommended for women with blocked fallopian tubes, advanced reproductive age, men with low sperm counts, or unexplained infertility.

The IVF program does not depend on the ovulatory cycle but the ovulatory cycle will be checked so that the doctor can take the mature ovary to be fertilized by the husband's sperm. This is in contrast to artificial insemination which depends heavily on the time of ovulation when the preferred sperm is implanted into the uterus.

Plus and Minus

According to medical data in the United States, tube baby program is more promising than artificial insemination. The success rate of IVF by age is as follows:

1. Wanita under age 35 has success about 41-43%
2. Women aged 35-37 have a success rate of about 33-36%
3. Women age 38-40 years have success about 23-27%
4. Women age over 40 years have a success rate of 13-18%

While the success rate of artificial insemination depends on fertility problems and the age of the mother and husband. Studies in the United States show that the success rate of artificial insemination in couples with unexplained fertility problems is about 4-5%. If fertility drugs are helped, success rates increase to 7-16%. The lighter the fertility problem and the age of the partner, the higher the success rate.

The tube baby program, because it is more complex, costs more than an artificial insemination program.

Differences and pluses minus each program, should be consulted with spouses and physicians confidant, to get the best solution to immediately cradle the baby.
