Intrauterine insemination

Unfortunately about 20% of infertility problems remain unexplained even after complete and sophisticated medical evaluations.

Studies have shown that intrauterine insemination (IUI) can be a useful treatment for these unexplained cases. IUI also treats couples with some male factor infertility conditions, as well as women with cervical mucous problems. IUI is often done in conjunction with ovulation-stimulating drugs. The goal of IUI is to increase the number of sperm at the site of fertilization in the fallopian tubes at the right time.

This section explains the IUI process, from when it should be considered, to how it works. As well, you can find out its risks and successes.
