IUI is a simple and commonly used fertility treatment that increases the chances of pregnancy by placing specially prepared sperm directly into the woman’s uterus during her fertile window. This short and relatively painless procedure helps bring the sperm closer to the egg, making fertilization more likely.
Here’s how it works: once embryos are developed in the lab, a few cells are gently taken from each embryo for analysis. This testing does not harm the embryo. Only embryos with a normal chromosome number are chosen for transfer, which improves the chances of a healthy pregnancy and reduces the risk of miscarriage.
At Sunanda IVF, we recommend IUI for couples dealing with unexplained infertility, mild male factor issues, cervical problems, or when timed intercourse hasn’t been successful. With careful monitoring and expert guidance, IUI can often be an effective first step before moving on to more advanced treatments like IVF.
