insemination
Reproductive seed delivery
Insemination is the introduction of semen into the reproductive tract.
The term usually appears in medical or agricultural contexts: artificial insemination, intrauterine insemination.
Natural conception involves insemination too, but the clinical word rarely describes ordinary sex.
