Intrauterine Insemination (IUI) is an assisted reproductive method in which specially prepared sperm is introduced directly into the uterus. This procedure is typically recommended for cases of mild or unexplained infertility. Its primary goal is to increase the likelihood of pregnancy through an approach that closely mimics natural conception.
The IUI process includes:
Assessment of your reproductive health
Ultrasound monitoring of ovulation
Medical stimulation of ovulation (if necessary)
Sperm collection and specialized laboratory preparation (sperm washing)
Quality assessment of the prepared sperm
Intrauterine placement of the sperm using a specialized catheter
Post-procedure monitoring
Hormonal support (if necessary)
Compared to In Vitro Fertilization (IVF), IUI is a less invasive, simpler, and more affordable option. It is a completely safe, outpatient procedure that does not require hospitalization.
At our center, the IUI procedure is performed under ultrasound guidance, which further maximizes your chances of a successful outcome.
