Self-Insemination

Self-insemination is a method of introducing sperm into the vagina in hopes that it will travel to the uterus and fertilize an egg. It is performed outside of the clinic setting. Self-insemination involves inserting a syringe full of semen into the vagina and administering it in the direction of the cervix.

Self-insemination is also called do-it-yourself insemination (DYI insemination), at-home insemination, and the turkey baster method.
