Intrauterine Insemination (IUI)
Intrauterine Insemination (IUI) or artificial insemination is a unique process where a female is artificially inseminated using simple invasive procedures. This process has minimum side effects and has the potential to elevate the chances of conception. IUI treatment is prescribed by the fertility experts after a comprehensive diagnosis and understanding the current condition of the couple.
Where is IUI applicable?
IUI is designed to provide excellent chances to overcome male infertility. When the sperm quality of a male partner is lower than the standard level, it becomes tough to achieve natural insemination. It means that the degraded quality of the sperm such as low motility, shorter lifespan, etc causes hindrance in becoming pregnant in a natural way. This is where IUI treatment can be very helpful. When sperm is incapable of swimming and crossing the fallopian tube, it is sent via artificial insemination. Simple invasive procedures will lead to the introduction of collected sperm into the female reproductive system via a guided system.
On the other hand, when the female reproductive system is suffering from issues like endometriosis, IUI can be the best way to ensure conception. In some cases, the cervical mucus sometimes becomes unreceptive and unwelcoming for the sperm preventing them from entering the fallopian tubes. An IVF specialist uses the leading equipment to bypass these conditions to introduce sperm directly inside the fallopian tubes.
What are the processes?
An IUI treatment comprises of ovulation kits, blood tests, ultrasounds, and a regular visit to a fertility clinic. The experts will diagnose the cause and educate the patients regarding the present condition. On proper education and consent, the process will begin. Sperm will be collected and preserved. On following the processes directed by a professional IVF specialist, the chances of becoming pregnant via IUI are elevated.
