Artificial Insemination by Husband (AIH) Licence

The Council may issue 4 classes of licences:

An artificial insemination by husband (AIH) licence authorizes (i) a procedure under which a man's sperm are introduced into the vagina or uterus of his wife otherwise than by sexual intercourse, and (ii) if necessary for and incidental to such procedure, the storage of sperm used or intended to be used in the procedure. AIH is broadly categorized into three types, namely intravaginal, intracervical and intrauterine. Institutions/private practitioners performing AIH only (and not other RT procedures) may refer to the Supplementary Code of Practice on Reproductive Technology - Artificial Insemination by Husband (AIH) for details.
