What is IUI?

A gentle first step for many couples

Intrauterine Insemination (IUI) is a fertility treatment where prepared sperm is placed directly into the uterus during the woman's fertile window. It bypasses the cervix, increases the number of sperm reaching the fallopian tubes, and improves the chance of fertilisation — often combined with mild medication to support ovulation.

For many couples, IUI is a sensible first step before considering more involved treatments like IVF. It's quick, affordable, and well tolerated — and for the right patients, it can be all that's needed.

Is IUI Right for You?

When IUI makes sense

IUI works best for specific situations — and we'll be honest about whether it's the right choice for yours.

Unexplained Infertility

When tests come back normal but pregnancy hasn't happened, IUI is often a reasonable first treatment.

Mild Male Factor

When sperm count or motility is mildly below normal, prepared sperm via IUI can improve the chances of fertilisation.

Ovulation Disorders

Combined with medication to induce ovulation, IUI helps couples with PCOS or irregular cycles.

Cervical Factor

When the cervix is unfavourable for sperm transport, IUI bypasses it entirely.

Donor Sperm

For couples or single women using donor sperm, IUI is the standard delivery method.

Sexual Dysfunction

When intercourse-related issues prevent natural conception, IUI is a respectful, dignified alternative.

The IUI Process

What your IUI cycle looks like

A typical IUI cycle takes 2–3 weeks. The procedure itself is brief and painless.

01

Initial Consultation

Full history, baseline ultrasound, hormonal panel and semen analysis. We confirm whether IUI is the right starting point.

02

Ovulation Tracking / Stimulation

From day 2–3 of your cycle, follicles are tracked via ultrasound. Mild oral or injectable medication may be used to support ovulation.

03

Trigger & Procedure

A trigger injection times ovulation precisely. 24–36 hours later, prepared sperm is gently placed in the uterus via a thin catheter. Takes 10 minutes.

04

Two-Week Wait & Test

You resume normal activities immediately. A pregnancy test 14 days after the procedure confirms whether the cycle has worked.

IUI FAQs

Questions we hear often

IUI is one of the most affordable fertility treatments — typically ₹8,000 to ₹20,000 per cycle in Hubli, depending on whether ovulation induction medications are used and how much monitoring is needed. We provide a clear itemised quote upfront.

IUI success rates are typically 10–20% per cycle, depending on age, diagnosis and sperm quality. Most patients who succeed with IUI do so within 3–4 cycles.

IUI itself is generally painless — similar to a Pap smear. Some women feel mild cramping during or after, which passes quickly. No anaesthesia is needed; you can resume normal activities the same day.

Most couples are advised to try 3–4 IUI cycles if results are promising. If IUI hasn't worked by cycle 4, IVF often becomes the more efficient next step.

IUI is most appropriate for couples with unexplained infertility, mild male factor, cervical issues, or ovulation disorders. It's generally not the right choice for blocked tubes, severe male factor or advanced maternal age.
