Intrauterine Insemination (IUI)

Depending on your circumstances IUI maybe a suitable treatment option for single women using donor sperm or heterosexual couples using the male partner’s sperm or donor sperm.

The female partner will be monitored to ensure the treatment takes place during her ovulation window.

This procedure is not recommended for couples where:

+  The male partner has a low sperm count

+   If you have been diagnosed with unexplained infertility

+  If you suffer with endometriosis.

The procedure itself only takes around 10 minutes; the prepared sperm is inserted directly into the uterus via a small catheter.

When timed with ovulation, we hope the sperm will meet the egg and fertilization will take place resulting in a positive pregnancy test.
