What is Intrauterine Insemination or IUI

What is Intrauterine insemination or IUI. Dr. Victory explains one of the core fertility procedures. IUI is a procedure for treating infertility that helps to improve the sperm quality and performance and deliver it as close as possible to the egg. Sperm are first put through a gradient centrifuge to remove all the cells and debris that can negatively impact their performance. They are then placed into an energy rich fluid that makes many more of the sperm swim and increases their speed. That solution is then injected into the uterus with a very soft catheter in a painless procedure that takes less than two minutes. The timing is optimized to occur as close as possible to the time of your ovulation (sperm in the vagina). The hoped-for outcome of IUI is for the sperm to swim into the fallopian tube and fertilize a waiting egg, resulting in a normal pregnancy. Depending on the reasons for infertility, IUI can be coordinated with your normal egg production or with fertility medications to increase the number of eggs being produced.
