Intrauterine
Insemination (IUI)

Intrauterine
Insemination (IUI)

IUI is sometimes used as a less expensive first-line treatment before trying techniques like IVF. It is a treatment most effective in younger women.

For this treatment, a woman takes fertility injections in order to stimulate eggs to be produced and released by the ovaries. When the egg is released, prepared sperm is placed into the uterus to maximise the number of good quality sperm available to fertilise the egg.

IUI relies on the sperm to make their own way to the egg. It is necessary to confirm that your fallopian tubes are open and healthy before having this treatment, so a HyCoSy is required before IUI can be used.

In your specific clinical situation, the clinical team will discuss whether IUI or IVF is the most appropriate choice for you.
