How it works, step by step

- 2 Trigger injection at the right time
- 3 Sperm placed in the uterus
- 4 Pregnancy test about two weeks on
What we offer
- Ultrasound follicular monitoring
- Ovulation trigger timing
- Semen preparation in-house
- Painless, few-minute procedure
Intrauterine insemination (IUI) is often the first fertility treatment we recommend when the fallopian tubes are open and sperm parameters are adequate. The cycle is tracked with ultrasound, and the procedure itself takes only a few minutes with no anaesthesia.
Frequently asked questions
How is IUI different from IVF?
IUI places prepared sperm directly into the uterus around ovulation. It is less invasive and lower cost than IVF, and is often tried first when test results are favourable.
Does IUI hurt?
No. It feels similar to a Pap smear — a little pressure, over in a few minutes. Most women go straight back to their day after.
