What is IUI?
IUI (intrauterine insemination) is a type of
artificial insemination. Sperm that have been
washed and concentrated are placed directly
inside of your uterus during ovulation. This
helps healthy sperm get closer to the egg when
its released by your ovaries. Its a common
fertility treatment for couples or individuals
wishing to conceive.

Does IUI Work?
The success varies depending on the underlying
cause of infertility. IUI works best in people
with unexplained infertility, and people with
cervical mucus issues or issues with ejaculation.
There are certain conditions like fallopian tube
disorders, endometriosis or severe sperm
impairment where IUI wont work well. Treatments
like IVF (in vitro fertilization) may work better
for these issues.

Expect after IUI treatment?

• There are some mild symptoms that you can
  experience after IUI
• Mild cramping.
• Spotting for one or two days.
• Most people will return to normal activities
  right away. You should avoid anything that makes
  you feel uncomfortable after IUI, but there
  usually arent any restrictions. A pregnancy test
  can be taken around two weeks after IUI.

Medications are used during IUI?

• IUI is often combined with fertility medications
  that stimulate your ovaries to produce and
  release as many eggs as possible. Some common
  medications are
• Clomiphene citrate (Clomid or Serophene).
• Letrozole (Femara).
• hCG (human Chorionic Gonadotropin).
• FSH (follicle-stimulating hormone).
• Prenatal vitamins (recommended for all
  pregnancies).

Risks of IUI

• IUI is low risk compared to other more invasive
  fertility treatments like IVF. Some of the risks
  of IUI are
• Multiple births You might release more than one
  egg if you take fertility medication. This
  increases your chances of becoming pregnant with
  twins, triplets or more.
• Infection This is rare.
• Spotting The procedure can cause a small amount
  of vaginal bleeding.
• Ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS) A rare
  side effect caused by taking too much fertility
  medication. OHSS causes your ovaries to become
  painful and swollen.

Side Effects of IUI
Some people experience mild side effects from
fertility medications. The most common side
effects after insemination are cramping and
spotting. IUI can be mentally and physically
difficult. Couples or individuals suffering from
infertility issues and pursuing assisted
reproductive technologies often struggle with
depression. Talk with your healthcare provider if
youre feeling disappointed or overwhelmed so
they can help you through the process.
