How can you get pregnant without sex? As strange as this question may seem on the surface, there are more and more techniques every day that promise to help you and your partner get pregnant without sex. There are many treatments used for infertility experienced by couples. If you have been diagnosed as infertile, or if you have tried unsuccessfully to conceive for at least a year and a half, then it might be appropriate for you and your partner to visit a fertility clinic for a consultation.
Before you begin the process of getting pregnant without sex, you should be aware of the high cost associated with many of these medical procedures. Even if you have medical insurance, there is the possibility that these procedures are not covered. Many fertility treatments are not considered "medically necessary" by the insurance companies, so they will not cover the cost of your treatment. It is possible that your employer has a program for the cost of these procedures, or that there is funding from another source. Maybe you already have saved enough to begin infertility treatments; if you have, that was pretty smart! Some procedures can cost upwards of $30,000 per visit to the doctor! Wow! And you thought your normal doctors' bills were expensive!
If you and your partner decide to pursue infertility treatments, there are many options to decide from. Most likely, your doctor will suggest a plan based on your desires, medical problems, and budget.
Treatments can start out with fairly simple methods such as prescription fertility drugs. These drugs will not make it possible for you to get pregnant without sex, but they will make it much easier for you to conceive when you do have sex. Drugs have effects such as causing your ovaries to release more than one egg at a time so that you increase your chances of getting pregnant each month. This type of treatment can be very effective for couples who are not completely infertile, but who are having trouble getting pregnant naturally.
More invasive treatments such as artificial insemination are available to help you get pregnant without having sex. During artificial insemination, a doctor strategically places semen into the uterus of the women who would like to become pregnant. The semen used my come from her partner or a male donor. This option can be used not only for infertile couples, but also for single women or lesbian couples that would like to have children.
After artificial insemination, there are even more serious measures that can be done to help you to get pregnant without sex. An egg and sperm can be combined in a laboratory and then the fetus can be implanted into the uterus, if necessary.
There are many options for women who need to get pregnant without sex; see your doctor to figure out which one is best for you!
