Abstract
An intravaginal conception assistance device for collecting and presenting ejaculate relatively close to a cervix. The device has a cup part for collecting the ejaculate present in a vaginal canal and presenting it relatively close to the cervix upon moving through the vaginal canal towards the cervix. The cup part is substantially invertible. The cup part can be brought from a first, substantially non-inverted state into a second, substantially inverted state in which the cup part has been folded substantially inside out. As a result, insertion of the cup part into the vaginal canal can be facilitated.
Claims8
An intravaginal conception assistance device for collecting and presenting ejaculate relatively close to a cervix, comprising a cup part for collecting the ejaculate present in a vaginal canal and presenting said ejaculate relatively close to the cervix upon moving through the vaginal canal towards the cervix, wherein said cup part is substantially invertible, wherein the cup part defines a main interior space arranged and dimensioned for receiving an ectocervix of the cervix at least partly, wherein at a bottom section of the main interior space defined by the cup part, a depression is provided that forms a reservoir for semen and/or moisturizer, wherein, in a substantially non-inverted state of the cup part, said reservoir is located below the main interior space and is in fluid connection with said main interior space.
An intravaginal conception assistance device for collecting and presenting ejaculate relatively close to a cervix, comprising a cup part for collecting the ejaculate present in a vaginal canal and presenting said ejaculate relatively close to the cervix upon moving through the vaginal canal towards the cervix, wherein said cup part is substantially invertible, wherein a side wall of the cup part is provided with at least one indentation defining a recess for a finger tip.
An intravaginal conception assistance device for collecting and presenting ejaculate relatively close to a cervix, comprising a cup part for collecting the ejaculate present in a vaginal canal and presenting said ejaculate relatively close to the cervix upon moving through the vaginal canal towards the cervix, wherein said cup part is substantially invertible, wherein a side wall of the cup part is provided with scraping means, wherein the scraping means is formed by a relatively sharp ridge.
A method for increasing the chances of getting pregnant, comprising the steps of:
- providing an intravaginal conception assistance device comprising a cup part for collecting the ejaculate present in a vaginal canal and presenting said ejaculate relatively close to the cervix upon moving through the vaginal canal towards the cervix, wherein said cup part is substantially invertible;
- inserting the substantially invertible cup part into a vagina of a user when said cup part is substantially in a substantially inverted state;
- moving the cup part through a vaginal canal towards a cervix of the user;
- and
- substantially inverting or substantially reinverting the substantially inverted cup part inside the vaginal canal, wherein the method further comprises a step of:
- providing ejaculate in the vaginal canal of the vagina prior to inserting the cup part into the vagina.
