The correct answer is: Artificial Insemination

ARTIFICIAL INSEMINATION (AI): The introduction of seminal fluid directly into the uterus of female by artificial method is called artificial insemination. This technique is used in male who have low sperm count and inability to inseminate the female normally. It is of two types:

a) Artificial insemination- homologous (AIH): In this method the semen is collected from husband and is introduced into the vagina or uterus of the female.
b) Artificial insemination- donor (AID): In this method the semen is collected from donor and is introduced into the vagina or uterus of the female.
