Postcoital-voiding insemination: technique for patients with retrograde ejaculation and infertility. 1977

J L Marmar, and D E Praiss, and T J DeBenedictis

Three patients with infertility secondary to retrograde ejaculation demonstrated motile sperm in their urine after coitus. These patients were instructed to alkalinize their urine and void directly into the vagina after intercourse. The technique was called "postcoital-voiding insemination." Three pregnancies have resulted. The technique appears to be a good alternative to bladder catheterization and artificial insemination.
