What this care involves
Intrauterine insemination (IUI) places prepared sperm into the uterus near the time of ovulation. It may be considered in selected circumstances after assessment.
When to seek a consultation
Ask about IUI if a fertility clinician has suggested insemination or you want to understand how it fits with other options. A consultation can clarify which tests and referrals are needed.
What an assessment may include
Depending on circumstances, evaluation may consider ovulation, whether a fallopian tube is open and sperm factors. Bring any prior fertility results to avoid repeating discussions.
Options and next steps
Discuss timing, monitoring and possible risks if medicines are used to stimulate ovulation. Confirm procedural arrangements with an appropriate fertility centre.
Common question
Is IUI the same as IVF?
No. In IUI, fertilisation can take place inside the body. In IVF, eggs are collected and fertilised in a laboratory.
