IUI (Intrauterine Insemination) involves placing washed and concentrated sperm directly into the uterus around the time of ovulation. It increases the number of sperm that reach the fallopian tubes and improves chances of fertilisation.
IUI is recommended for unexplained infertility, mild male factor infertility (low sperm count or motility), ovulation disorders (PCOS), cervical mucus issues, and couples where IVF is not yet needed. IUI requires at least 5 million total motile sperm after semen washing — below this, ICSI is more appropriate.
IUI success rates are typically 10–20% per cycle. Success improves with multiple cycles. Most doctors recommend 3–6 IUI cycles before moving to IVF. Read our IUI vs IVF comparison guide to understand when to step up treatment.
Hormone tests, semen analysis, and pelvic scan to confirm IUI is appropriate.
Ultrasound scans track follicle growth. Trigger injection given when follicles are ready.
Semen sample is washed and concentrated in the lab to select the best quality sperm.
Prepared sperm is inserted directly into the uterus using a thin catheter. Takes 5–10 minutes.
Blood test or urine pregnancy test 14 days later to confirm result.
