A woman is given fertility drugs to help her body produce several eggs at once, rather than the usual one per month. When a sufficient number of eggs have ripened they are extracted from her body with a long puncture needle, and kept at a laboritory.

The man then hands in a dose of semen (obtained from masturbation) which is 'worked up' to have only the most mobile (quickest) sperm cells remain.

The eggs and sperm are then put together in a test tube, in order to find each other more easily as they would inside a woman's body.

If one or more eggs are successfully fertilised one or two (usually not more, in view of medical risks) will be put back into the woman's body in hopes that they might nestle there resulting in pregnancy.

Success rate of IVF is roughly 20%-25%.

it depends on what you are talking about on doing it to.

an animal or person?

Artificial Insemination is when you inject semen into the female reproductive tract. Most all animals are artificially inseminated differently. In many animals, you must manipulate the cervix or imitate natural breeding habits.

Some of the time when artificial insemination is needed, it's the male who has the infertility. There is a chance that it's the women with the problem also.

Artificial insemination is also done when a single woman uses donated sperm, a male wants to father a child via surrogacy or a couple uses a surrogate and sperm from the potential father.

Occasionally it is also the method of choice for a woman and her partner when she has certain difficulties getting pregnant.

Artificial insemination (AI) is the deliberate introduction of semen into a female for the purpose of fertilization, by means other than ejaculation directly into the vagina or oviduct.

Artificial insemination is a fertility treatment for humans, and is a common practice in the breeding of dairy cattle and pigs. Artificial insemination may employ assisted reproductive technology, donated sperm, and/or animal husbandry techniques.

Sometimes in a relationship, the male may have what is called a "narrow urethra" which means that the tube that his sperm is carried out by is too narrow and will not allow a sufficient amount of sperm into the vagina. Artificial insemination would involve aquiring a sufficient amount of sperm from the male in the relationship, or a donor, and injecting it into the mother-to-be's womb.

What are the advantages and disadvantages of artificial insemination in humans?

Infertility IssuesFor couples who suffer from infertility issues, artificial insemination is usually the most successful choice for them to have a kid. Using artificial insemination opens up the doors to parenthood to couples who may not be able to have a child otherwise, due to male or female infertility issues.In some cases, the male partner in a relationship may have had a past vasectomy, and rather than undergoing a reversal, the couple can choose artificial insemination using donor sperm to still get the child they desire.Same Sex CouplesFor same sex couples, having a child is an issue. However, artificial insemination allows the doors to parenthood to open for them as well. A woman in a same sex relationship can be inseminated with donor sperm, or men in a same sex relationship can seek out a surrogate to carry a child, using their own sperm or donor sperm.Single Men and WomenSingle women without a partner may desire a pregnancy, and for them, artificial insemination offers the advantage of being able to have a child, using donor sperm. It's also not uncommon for women to have their own partner's sperm frozen in the event that their partner is deceased, and be able to use that later on, to conceive a child of their own.When using donor sperm for artificial insemination, the sperm is tested and screened prior to being inseminated, and doing this reduces the issue of passing on genetic disorders to the unborn baby.Single men can also take advantage of artificial insemination, by using a surrogate and having their own sperm inseminated into the motheri hope this helped ^^

Does artificial selection affect a bull?

No. Artificial insemination is only used on cows. It may affect the number of bulls that a producer can have in his operation, but it certainly doesn't affect the bulls themselves. A producer still has to manage his bulls the same way as he always would without incorporating the use of artificial insemination into his operations. Artificial insemination is just a fancy term for an alternative method of getting cows bred without having to deal with potentially dangerous and ornery bulls.
