Best IUI Treatment with Low Cost IUI in Jaipur, Rajasthan
Intra Uterine Insemination (IUI)
Intrauterine insemination (IUI) entails retrieving a semen sample from the male partner or a donor, then directly injecting it into the uterine cavity around ovulation. Typically, IUI is the initial recommendation in infertility treatment when medication alone proves ineffective. It's specifically advised in the following scenarios:
- In cases of mild to moderate reduction in sperm count and motility.
- When infertility lacks an apparent cause (unexplained infertility).
Basics To Undergo An IUI Treatment
In addition to a standard examination, the following tests are conducted prior to performing an IUI:
- Semen analysis
- Sonography of the uterus and ovaries
- Evaluation of tubal patency through methods like Hystero-salpingography (HSG) or laparoscopy. The specific tests chosen depend on factors such as the patient's age, duration of infertility, and clinical observations.
Initiation Of IUI Treatment Follows Certain Planned Steps
Firstly, we administer medications to stimulate the ovaries, aiming to induce the production of 2 or 3 eggs in each ovary.
Subsequently, we monitor the ovarian response through sonography.
Once the follicle reaches a specific size, indicating readiness for ovulation, we initiate the final ovulation process with an HCG injection.
On the day of the IUI procedure, the husband is required to provide a semen sample, which can alternatively be a previously preserved one. This sample undergoes processing to isolate motile and normal sperm.
The IUI procedure itself is a straightforward outpatient process.
IUI is conducted 36 to 40 hours after administering the trigger injection (HCG).
Using a fine catheter, the prepared semen sample is then directly injected into the uterus.
Precautions To Take After An IUI Treatment
IUI is a straightforward procedure that doesn't necessitate any specific precautions. Following the procedure, a brief period of rest is recommended before resuming normal activities. Occasionally, you may receive medication to assist with a potential pregnancy.
Intricacies Involved In An IUI Treatment
IUI is a simple and safe procedure. Apart from mild pain and spotting on the day of an IUI, there are no major complications. Around five to ten percent of the patients have multiple [generally twin] pregnancies. Sometimes, a patient may respond excessively to medications and produce more eggs, putting her at risk for multiple pregnancies and a condition called Ovarian Hyper Stimulation Syndrome (OHSS). If this occurs, your doctor will advise you accordingly and the cycle may be cancelled or converted to an IVF cycle.
IUI Success Rates
Around 80% of pregnancies resulting from IUI typically occur within the initial three cycles, with a decline in success rates thereafter. We typically advise a maximum of three IUI cycles, though this recommendation varies based on factors such as the patient's age, and the cause and duration of infertility.
The success rate of IUI is approximately 15-20%.
