Intrauterine Insemination (IUI) — A Simple & Effective Fertility Treatment
At Rotunda Hygeia, we offer Intrauterine Insemination (IUI) as one of the first-line treatments for couples struggling to conceive. IUI is a safe, minimally invasive, and affordable procedure that can help you achieve your dream of parenthood.
What is IUI?
Intrauterine insemination (IUI) is a fertility treatment where specially prepared sperm are placed directly into the woman’s uterus during ovulation. This increases the number of sperm reaching the egg, improving the chances of fertilization and pregnancy.
Who Can Benefit From IUI?
IUI is often recommended for couples with:
- Mild male infertility (low sperm count or motility)
- Cervical factor infertility (thick cervical mucus or other issues)
- Ovulation disorders (like PCOS, when combined with ovulation induction)
- Unexplained infertility
- Couples using donor sperm
The IUI Process at Rotunda Hygeia
✨ Step 1: Ovulation Monitoring
We track your ovulation through ultrasound and/or blood tests. Sometimes, medications may be given to stimulate egg production.
✨ Step 2: Sperm Preparation
The male partner (or donor) provides a semen sample, which is then washed and concentrated to select the healthiest sperm.
✨ Step 3: Insemination
A thin, soft catheter is used to place the prepared sperm directly into your uterus. The procedure is quick, painless for most women, and takes just a few minutes.
✨ Step 4: After the Procedure
You can resume normal activities shortly after. A pregnancy test is done about two weeks later.
Why Choose IUI?
✅ Simple, safe, and non-surgical procedure
✅ No need for anesthesia or hospitalization
✅ More affordable than IVF
✅ Can be repeated over multiple cycles
Success Rates of IUI
IUI success rates vary depending on age, fertility issues, and whether fertility drugs are used. At Rotunda Hygeia, our skilled specialists optimize every step to improve your chances of success.
