WHAT IS IUI ?

IUI is a specialized process that involves the careful separation of active, healthy sperm from non-moving or dead sperm and debris within a semen sample. These selected sperm are then gently placed inside the uterus using a special catheter. This procedure is typically performed when a woman is ovulating, or during egg rupture.

Is IUI for Me?

IUI may be recommended for individuals facing various conditions, including:

  • Cervical factors such as poor cervical mucus quality or unsatisfactory post-coital test results.
  • Mild to moderate abnormalities in semen analysis, which could include low sperm concentration (oligospermia), low sperm motility (asthenospermia), or a lower count of morphologically normal sperm.
  • Unexplained infertility.
  • Male ejaculatory dysfunction.
  • Use of frozen sperm or donor sperm.
  • Presence of antisperm antibodies.
  • Grade 1 or grade 2 endometriosis.
  • Advanced maternal age, which may be influenced by ovarian reserve.

How is the Procedure Performed?

The IUI procedure typically involves the following steps:

  • Medication: You will receive oral tablets and/or gonadotropin injections from the second or third day of your menstrual cycle for 5-10 days. Your response will be monitored through sonography every 3-4 days.
  • Ovulation Trigger: When the follicles reach the appropriate size, an hCG injection is administered to trigger ovulation. The IUI procedure is planned for approximately 36 hours after this trigger.
  • Semen Collection: On the day of the IUI, your partner provides a semen sample, which is then processed in the laboratory before being gently injected into the uterus.
  • Medication and Pregnancy Confirmation: You may be prescribed supportive medications for the following 14 days. At the end of this period, a urine pregnancy test or serum beta-hCG test is conducted to confirm pregnancy.
