Interested in a New Investigational
Intrauterine Insemination?

See if the FemaSeed study is right for you.

What is FemaSeed?

FemaSeed is a flexible catheter that is placed into your uterus after a speculum is positioned (just like for a pap smear). The FemaSeed catheter is designed with a balloon which is inflated in the uterus near the opening of one fallopian tube, allowing the prepared sperm to be delivered by pressure through the catheter near and into the selected fallopian tube. Conception (when sperm cell successfully meets an egg cell) usually takes place in the fallopian tubes, which connect the ovaries to the uterus. This new investigational method of delivery has not been studied before.
