Advanced IUI

Advanced IUI

It is the procedure in which the Gynecologist uses a medical device for directly placing the husband’s processed sperms into the wife’s uterus. IUI treatment is the most useful solution when the cervix of a woman has scarring due to which sperm is not able to enter the uterus or when it has an abnormal shape that prevents sperm’s passage.

In which conditions its useful?

It can prove to be a perfect medical procedure for patients dealing with problems like:

·      Cervical factor

·      Patent(open) fallopian tubes

·      Minimal or absence of endometriosis

·      Any ovulatory abnormality such as PCOS or irregular menstrual cycle

And many more.

How is it conducted?

IUI treatment in Akruti IVF Center is a process with simple steps, that does not take much time

·      Male partner generates the semen sample

·      Andrology laboratory “washes” it, for concentrating the motile(moving) sperm and removing the non-motile one

·      IUI treatment takes place by the help of a flexible small catheter
