If traditional intercourse isn’t yielding the desired results, our innovative at-home insemination kit may be the solution you need. This unique kit is designed for comfort and ease of use, empowering families to conceive in the comfort of their own homes.

What’s Included in the Kit?

Each MakeAmom kit comprises two specially designed syringes, featuring unique openings tailored for optimal sperm transfer, along with two collection cups for sample collection. With more than 100,000 families successfully using our kit, we are dedicated to helping you on your path to parenthood.


Key Features

  1. Optimized Design: Unlike standard syringes that may trap sperm, our syringes have a rounded tip that minimizes waste, ensuring maximum release of sperm into the intended area.
  2. Gentle Flow: The syringes feature a specially designed opening that mimics natural processes, facilitating a smooth transfer of sperm for effective insemination.
  3. Comfort First: Every edge of our syringes is rounded, making them comfortable to use during the insemination process. The custom-designed stopper works in harmony with the syringe, ensuring smooth sample collection and transfer.

How to Use Your MakeAmom Kit

  1. Collect the Sample: Start by gathering the semen sample in the provided collection cup. For best results, aim for the center and store it at room temperature.
  2. Draw the Sample: Insert the syringe into the cup and gently pull back the plunger to draw the sample. For optimal comfort, practice pulling the plunger back and forth a few times before use.
  3. Inseminate: Find a comfortable position, preferably lying down with your hips slightly elevated. Insert the syringe into your vagina similar to using a tampon, pushing it in just until the handles. Fully press the plunger to release the sample, then gently remove the syringe.
  4. Relax: It’s advisable to remain lying down for 15-30 minutes post-insemination. Use this time to unwind with your favorite music or a good book. Dispose of the syringe and cup after use, and use the second syringe within 18-24 hours for the best chance of success.

Additional Support

For those using frozen sperm, our support page has all the information you need. We recommend inseminating at the first hint of ovulation, ideally two to three days before ovulation is expected. Sperm requires time to travel through your body to meet the egg, so it’s crucial to plan accordingly.
