F.A.Q
What is sperm washing?
Sperm washing is a lab technique that separates healthy, motile sperm from seminal fluid, non-motile sperm, white blood cells, and other debris. It is used to prepare the sperm for intrauterine or home insemination, reducing the risk of irritation or infection.
Who can use this service?
Why is Mosie™ included?
The Mosie™ Home Insemination Kit is included to support proper sperm placement, reduce loss during transfer, and provide a consistent, user-friendly method for home insemination.
Can you guarantee pregnancy?
No. While sperm washing may improve conditions for conception, pregnancy outcomes depend on many personal and biological factors.
Is this a clinical or fertility treatment?
No. This is a non-clinical service provided by a trained Medical Laboratory Scientist. It does not replace consultation with a doctor or fertility specialist.
Are there any benefits from washing sperm for insemination?
Yes, some key benefits include:
- improved fertilization potential, by concentrating the healthiest, most motile sperm.
- improved sperm quality.
- concentrating viable sperm from smaller samples, if ejaculatory issues are present.
Can I use this service if I'm working with a sperm donor?
No. I cannot legally process sperm from donors outside of a clinical setting.
How is the sample handled?
Samples are handled under sterile, controlled conditions and returned ready for use with home insemination. Instructions for timing and handling are provided.
How long does sperm survive after being washed?
After sperm washing, motile sperm typically remain viable for 6-12 hrs, though some samples may show activity for up to 24 hrs. Every situation is unique, so results may vary from person to person.
