Intrauterine Insemination (IUI)

Also known as artificial insemination, intrauterine insemination (IUI) is the process by which sperm is inserted in a woman's uterus through artificial means. A less invasive and more affordable alternative to In Vitro Fertilization, IUI uses washed or prepared sperm, or sperm from a donor, that is inserted into a very thin flexible catheter and then injected through the cervix directly into the uterus. The whole process is relatively painless, takes only minutes and is typically performed around the time of ovulation.
