Intrauterine Insemination (IUI)

Personalised fertility Solutions

Intrauterine Insemination (IUI)

Intrauterine Insemination (IUI) is a fertility treatment that involves placing specially prepared sperm directly into the uterine cavity during ovulation. This approach helps improve the chances of conception, especially for those dealing with unexplained infertility, borderline low sperm counts, mild endometriosis, or patent fallopian tubes.

If you’re undergoing fertility treatment in Mackay, we understand that shift work or other commitments can make it challenging to coordinate the timing of ovulation. IUI offers a flexible solution, as it can be performed using frozen semen, ensuring that treatment isn’t disrupted by scheduling conflicts.

IUI is a convenient and affordable treatment option, increasing the likelihood of a successful pregnancy when performed under the right circumstances. For a comprehensive look at the IUI process and how it could benefit your fertility journey, download our detailed guide below.

The IUI process

The IUI process is designed to be simple, efficient, and minimally invasive, making it an accessible option for many on their fertility journey. This three-step procedure aims to optimise the timing of insemination and increase the chances of conception.

Follicle Scan

A scan is performed to assess follicle development and determine the optimal time for insemination.

Trigger Injection

An injection is administered to accurately predict and trigger ovulation. IUI can also be done in a natural cycle when appropriate.

Insemination

Sperm is placed directly into the uterus using a simple procedure similar to a smear test, all without the need for hospitalisation.
