Conceptive cervical cap, reusable (A flexible device designed to promote conception, either by serving as a container to introduce semen into the cervix, or by acting as a cervical cup that allows sperm to be held in place for easier access to the cervical os. It is a plastic device that is typically larger, but shallower, than a contraceptive cap. The device is used to aid conception in couples who have experienced difficulties due to low sperm counts, reduced sperm motility or a hostile vaginal environment; and also for self or assisted insemination. This is a reusable device.)
