Intrauterine insemination (IUI)

Intrauterine insemination (IUI)

Intrauterine insemination (IUI) is one of the methods of assisted reproductive technology (ART). In IUI, sperms are inoculated directly into the uterus when one or more eggs are about to be released (the released eggs are fertile for 12 to 24 hours). If the sperm swims into the fallopian tube and fertilizes the released egg, the IUI treatment is considered successful. Depending on the cause of infertility, the IUI timing may be either synchronized with the natural menstrual cycle or regulated through ovulation-inducing medicines.  

IUI is usually recommended to infertile couples in the following cases:

- Defects in sperm production, function and morphology (abnormal results of sperm analysis such as low sperm mobility, the existence of sperm antibodies in semen, and the low number of sperms with normal morphology)

- Reduced male libido

- Male impotent ejaculation

- Retrograde ejaculation

- Ovulation disorders

- Cervical disorders

- Lethal secretions of sperm in the cervix

- Blockage of one of the fallopian tubes

- Impossibility of intercourse due to pain

- Mild to moderate endometriosis

- Infertility with unknown causes
