During this process, the man inserts his erect penis into the woman's vagina and then either partner initiates rhythmic pelvic thrusts until the man achieves orgasm , which leads to ejaculation of semen containing sperm into the vaginal canal.

  3. Fertility testing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fertility_testing

    This test is able to detect luteinizing hormone and estrone-3-glucuronide 90% of the time. This test can be used in multiple ways. A few drops of urine can be added to the test device tip. Alternatively, the test device tip can be held in the urine stream. Finally, the test device tip can be dipped into a cup of urine.

    Adding support to another aspect of the Shettles's findings related to sperm morphology, an important element in his method, a 1997 study, "Size Differences Between X and Y Spermatozoa and Prefertilization Diagnosis," published in Molecular Human Reproduction, using polymerase chain reaction-aided techniques, concluded: “Statistically, the ...

  5. Human cloning - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_cloning

    It is an active area of research, and is in medical practice over the world. Two common methods of therapeutic cloning that are being researched are somatic-cell nuclear transfer and (more recently) pluripotent stem cell induction. Reproductive cloning would involve making an entire cloned human, instead of just specific cells or tissues.

  7. Human fertilization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_fertilization

    Human fertilization is the union of an egg and sperm, occurring primarily in the ampulla of the fallopian tube. [1] The result of this union leads to the production of a fertilized egg called a zygote, initiating embryonic development. Scientists discovered the dynamics of human fertilization in the 19th century. [2]

  8. Sexual selection in humans - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sexual_selection_in_humans

    In that view, many human artifacts could be considered subject to sexual selection as part of the extended phenotype, for instance clothing that enhances sexually selected traits. [2] During human evolution, on at least two occasions, hominid brain size increased rapidly over a short period of time followed by a period of stasis.

  9. Semen analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semen_analysis

    Semen analysis is a complex test that should be performed in andrology laboratories by experienced technicians with quality control and validation of test systems. A routine semen analysis should include: physical characteristics of semen (color, odor, pH, viscosity and liquefaction), volume, concentration, morphology and sperm motility and ...
