Registration Number: NCT04646291

Lead Sponsor: Mosie Baby

Brief Summary: This study examines the experience of people who have selected to use the at-home insemination Mosie Kit to understand the user's experience, the perceived safety and the efficiency. People who have recently purchased and voluntarily selected to use the Mosie Kit will be invited to complete a one-time online anonymous survey. The results of the survey will be analyzed to understand their experiences.

Detailed Description: At-home intracervical insemination (ICI), folklorickly known as the "turkey-baster" method, has been used for decades to increase likelihood of pregnancy. This method works by depositing semen close to or at the cervix. While there are several devices such as over the counter syringes and silicone caps, the creator of the Mosie Baby syringe believes it is designed to be more ergonomic and compatible with a woman's body, easy and safe to use, and results in depositing the semen at or near the cervix opening. The Mosie Kit provides people with an at-home intracervical insemination option which could be used before resorting to more invasive and expensive options such as Intrauterine Insemination (IUI) or in vitro fertilization. There is vast evidence of Mosie's success in the form of happy users who have conceived. There is a desire to learn more about the safety, useability and experience of using the Mosie kit.

This retrospective study will examine the experience of people who have voluntarily chosen to purchase and use the Mosie Kit. The Mosie Kit consists of 2 syringes and a semen collection cup Understanding the safety, useability and experience of using the Mosie Kit will provide additional information about the nature of using intracervical insemination as a viable method for getting pregnant. The information gained will increase understanding of how viable the Mosie Kit is as a first step in trying to conceive and how it is perceived by the people who have chosen to use it.
