IUI or intrauterine insemination is a simple fertility treatment. The procedure involves transferring washed semen directly into the uterus through a thin catheter. It is a painless and cheaper alternative. Intrauterine insemination is done by making the sperm swim into the fallopian tube and fertilize a waiting egg, resulting in a normal pregnancy. Depending on the reasons for infertility, IUI can be coordinated with your normal cycle or with fertility medications. The chances of pregnancy after one IUI cycle, if done under the age of 35, are 10-20 per cent. For women between the ages of 35-40, their chances even get lower by 10 per cent, whereas women above 40 have only 2-5 per cent of chances to get pregnant. **Book A Free Consultation** Hospitals in India are well-established and acclaimed brands themselves which accounts for the utmost success rate of treatments and surgeries taking place here.

Preconception Admonishing from Doctor:** Many doctors suggest this step of taking medical advice from an IUI specialist before you get started with fertility treatment of IUI. In this part, the doctor advises you about how to focus on your maternal health by taking some medications, carefully planning your diet, etc. **2. Ensuring Production of Eggs:** Women usually do this on their own for finding the perfect timing or insemination of sperm for IUI pregnancy while they are ovulating. If she has earlier problems with ovulation and has been through unsuccessful IUI procedures then doctors may prescribe oral drugs to deal with and stimulate ovulation. The stimulation of ovulation can also be done by injecting drugs directly into your body. However, this process has now been reduced as it had resulted in the release of multiple eggs further creating a severe risk of multiple pregnancies in women. **3.

Harvesting of sperm:** You can either use fresh sperm or the old frozen sperm for IUI treatment. If you are using a fresh one then your partner or your acquired sperm donor will need to be there. In case of non-availability of fresh sperm, there are plenty of other donated or frozen sperm that you can use for fertilization. The frozen ones are defrosted for you if you need it by the clinic itself. After defrosting, the sperm is washed to clear out impurities if any. Most of the sample part and less of the fluid of the sperm is used, so that more amounts of sperm can result into more chances of the egg to get fertilized. **5. Insertion of sperm:** After washing and clearing out all impurities of the sperm, the core IUI step by step treatment starts. The doctor inserts a thin long tube which is also called a catheter in medical terms; it is a medical equipment that helps in planting sperm in your uterus to carry out IUI procedure. The sperm is inserted into the uterus through your vagina passing through your cervix area and the tube then releases the sperm into your uterus. IUI procedure is the fertility treatment which is completely painless but it has been seen in some cases that mild cramps may occur while going through the procedure. **Expected Result:** The chances of pregnancy after one IUI fertility treatment cycle, by age: Under 35: 10 to 20 percent chance of pregnancy. For women between 35 and 40: 10 percent chance. Women 40 and above: 2 to 5 percent chance. **Recovery Timeline:** Being a very simple and small procedure, it does not require much of your time.
