Chances of getting pregnant are higher when the ovaries are stimulated and pumped with sperm compared with intercourse on the day of ovulation.
The important factor to achieve the highest pregnancy rate is to determine the time of sperm injection as close to the time of ovulation to pump an ideal amount of sperm into the uterus.
Abstinence from sex before performing sperm collection for pumping is 2-3 days to create the maximum amount of motile sperm in the ejaculate sample before sperm injection.

Sperm concentration will increase if you abstain from sex for 2-3 days. If sperm is injected about 30-36 hours after hCG injection, the ideal conception rate will be achieved. Having sex on the day of hCG injection may raise concerns about decreased motile sperm count in the pump sample.
The results have shown that if you abstain from sex for 2-3 days before insemination, the pregnancy rate will be higher. The duration of sexual abstinence had a significant impact on semen parameters. Abstaining from sex before insemination can increase your chances of getting pregnant.
