IUI (INTRA-UTERINE INSEMINATION)

IUI (INTRA-UTERINE INSEMINATION)

It is the process of placing washed and processed semen sample containing motile sperms through the cervix inside the uterine cavity near the fallopian tubes around the time of ovulation.

Whom does it help

  • IUI is generally the first line of treatment when medication and timed intercourse does not succeed.
  • It is recommended for patients with mild to moderate decrease in sperm count and /or motility, or if there is mild endometriosis.
  • For women who do not ovulate regularly, ovulation induction maybe combined with IUI.
  • Also, in some couples in whom there is no apparent cause for infertility (unexplained infertility), IUI may be advised.

What are the requirements before IUI?

  • Egg formation and ovulation with or without medications.
  • Patent tubes.
  • A normal or mild to moderately decreased sperm count
