What should I expect?

  1. IUI treatment should begin on her second or third day of the menstrual cycle.

  2. A fertility specialist will examine you through an ultrasound scan and recommend the right medicines to stimulate the ovary to develop one or more mature follicles (each follicle in the ovary may or may not contain a healthy egg).

  3. The growth of these follicles is tracked by serial ultrasound scans.

  4. Once the follicle is ready, a trigger injection is given for egg release & IUI dates.

  5. On the day of IUI – the male partner's semen is processed by procedures like double-density gradient/MACs/microfluidics depending on prior semen analysis & PFI report.

  6. The processed semen sample is placed inside the female partner's uterus under ultrasound guidance using a thin, soft catheter by Dr Pratibha Singh.

  7. A post-IUI patient can rest for 10 minutes & is then given luteal support medications for 15 days.
