What is Intrauterine Insemination (IUI)?

Intrauterine insemination (IUI) is a fertility treatment that involves carefully placing sperm inside the uterus to facilitate fertilization. This procedure is less invasive and more affordable than IVF. 

IUI is often recommended for couples facing: 

• Male infertility 
• Unexplained fertility issues 
• Mild endometriosis
  
  

Understanding The IUI Fertility Treatment 

The IUI procedure is straightforward and minimally invasive. 

Sperm is carefully inserted into the uterus through a thin catheter, increasing the chances of sperm reaching the egg. This procedure usually occurs during ovulation to maximize the likelihood of a fertilized egg.
