IUI
in Turkey

IUI supports your journey toward pregnancy by placing prepared
sperm into the uterus, timed around the woman’s ovulation.

Intrauterine insemination (IUI) is a fertility treatment that involves placing sperm directly into the uterus around the time of ovulation to facilitate fertilization. This method aims to increase the number of sperm that reach the fallopian tubes, thereby improving the chances of pregnancy. IUI in Turkey is a commonly sought-after procedure for individuals and couples experiencing infertility.

Who may consider IUI treatment? IUI is often recommended for couples with unexplained infertility, mild male factor infertility (such as slightly low sperm count or motility), women with ovulation disorders, or those using donor sperm. It is generally a less invasive and more affordable option compared to other assisted reproductive technologies like IVF.

The IUI procedure itself is relatively straightforward. It typically begins with fertility medications to stimulate ovulation, followed by a sperm sample collection. The sperm is then processed in the laboratory to concentrate the healthiest sperm. This prepared sperm is then carefully inserted into the uterus using a thin catheter. The entire process is usually quick and can be performed in an outpatient setting.

The success rate of IUI can vary depending on factors such as age, the cause of infertility, and the specific protocols used. While it offers a hopeful solution for many, it is important to have realistic expectations. The cost of IUI is generally lower than other fertility treatments, making it an accessible option for many seeking to start or grow their family.
