IUI Treatment In Chennai
What is IUI?
Intrauterine Insemination (IUI) is one of the most common and less invasive fertility treatments. It is often recommended as the first-line option for couples facing mild fertility challenges. It is a fertility procedure where processed and concentrated sperm are directly placed into the woman's uterus around the time of ovulation. This increases the chances of the sperm meeting the egg.
IUI Treatment Process
1. Ovulation Induction (Optional)
Medications like Letrozole or Gonadotropins are used to stimulate egg growth.
2. Follicular Monitoring
Transvaginal scans track follicle size and endometrial thickness.
3. Trigger Injection
hCG injection is given when the follicle reaches maturity (~18-20 mm).
4. Semen Collection & Preparation
Partner provides semen on the day of procedure. The sample is washed and concentrated.
5. Insemination Procedure
A thin catheter is used to insert sperm into the uterus. It is a quick, painless OPD procedure.
