About "Artificial insemination (IUI)"

Artificial insemination is used to treat infertility, where semen is directly inserted into the womb. Intrauterine insemination (IUI) is the commonly used artificial insemination technique. IUI is recommended in the following situations:

• Couple unable to have sex due to erectile dysfunction.
• When cervix does not produce enough mucus to help sperm reach the egg.
• Endometriosis.
• Women who are allergic to a certain protein in the sperm.
• When the quantity, quality, and motility of sperm are low.

In this technique, sperm is collected from the partner or a sperm donor, which is implanted into the uterus with the help of a catheter. It is done when the woman is ovulating.
