IUI is a type of artificial insemination that places millions of healthy sperm directly into a woman’s uterus, while she is ovulating. It is the best, safest, and an effective treatment to treat infertility. The process takes only a few minutes and causes minimal discomfort.

Also, it is a relatively non-invasive and less expensive fertility treatment compared to other procedures.

Intrauterine insemination may be required in the following situations:

• Unexplained infertility

• Mild male factor infertility

• Cervical issues

• Ejaculation dysfunction

• Endometriosis-related infertility

• Donor sperm

• Semen allergy

• Problems with ovulation

The process of intrauterine insemination involves several steps:

1. Ovulation monitoring: Before proceeding with IUI, the woman's menstrual cycle is closely monitored. This may involve tracking the growth of follicles through ultrasounds and measuring hormone levels through blood tests.
In case hormone therapy is involved to stimulate ovulation, your progress will be monitored through ultrasound scans to assess the development of eggs. Once the eggs reach maturity, you will receive an injection to trigger their release.

2. Timing of insemination:  The goal is to perform the insemination as close to the time of ovulation as possible to maximize the chances of fertilization. Insemination can be scheduled for the day of ovulation or sometimes the day before.

3. Semen preparation:  In the laboratory, the semen sample undergoes a process called sperm washing. This involves separating the motile and healthy sperm from the seminal fluid and other impurities. The processed sperm is concentrated into a small volume for insemination.

4. Insemination procedure:  A thin catheter is carefully inserted into your uterus through the cervix. Using this catheter, the high-quality sperm extracted from the semen sample is gently transferred into the uterine cavity.

5. Pregnancy testing:  Approximately two weeks after the procedure, a pregnancy test is performed to determine if conception has occurred.

Here are some things you can do in consult with your doctor to prepare yourself for IUI:

• Undergo testing such as Ovarian reserve testing, Semen analysis, Ultrasound, Tubal patency test, Screening for infectious diseases, and Blood tests to measure hormone levels.
