A simple, targeted fertility treatment

IUI is one of the most common and least invasive fertility treatments. Your physician places washed and concentrated sperm directly into your uterus, increasing the number of healthy sperm reaching the egg.

What to Expect

The Procedure takes just a few minutes with minimal to no discomfort, and patients can resume normal activities immediately after.

Who benefits from IUI?

Heterosexual couples with unexplained infertility

Heterosexual couples with mild male factor infertility

Women with cervical factor infertility

Same-sex female couples using donor sperm

Single women using donor sperm

IUI is often recommended before moving to IVF, as it's less invasive and more affordable.
