Understanding Conception: How Pregnancy Happens - Methods & Processes

1. Sexual intercourse: This is the most common way for women to get pregnant. When a man ejaculates inside a woman's vagina during sex, sperm cells are released into the woman's reproductive tract. These sperm cells can then travel through the fallopian tubes to reach the ovaries, where they may fertilize an egg.

2. Artificial insemination: This is a method of reproduction in which sperm is collected from a man and then inserted into a woman's reproductive tract. This can be done through a variety of methods, such as in vitro fertilization (IVF) or intrauterine insemination (IUI).

3. Surrogacy: This is a type of pregnancy in which a woman carries and gives birth to a child for another couple or individual. The baby is then given to the intended parents after birth.
