Intrauterine Insemination and Unexplained infertility

Most couple have a strong desire to bear a child at some point in their life. In normal cases, a couple can conceive within one year of having frequent or unprotected sex. When no results are seen within one year, the couple must go for fertility tests. After the tests, if no infertility issues are found in both the partners then it is referred to as “unexplained infertility”. In these cases, doctors often suggest the couple to have Timed sexual intercourse at the time of ovulation for few months. If these subsequent trials have failed, then IUI and fertility drugs are used to get pregnant.

IUI or Intrauterine Insemination is the next step of management in unexplained infertility

Intrauterine Insemination is a procedure which involves injecting or inseminating processed sperm into women's uterus around the time of ovulation.The goal of IUI is to increase the number of sperm that reach the fallopian tubes, thereby increasing the chances of fertilization. IUI cycles are also co-ordinated in combination with fertility drugs so that they stimulate the ovaries and increase the count of eggs.

Before the procedure, a woman is evaluated for infection, hormonal imbalances and other structural problems. Insemination is done at the time of ovulation, usually within 24-36 hours after fertility medicines are given to stimulate ovulation. Semen collected from the partner is washed at the lab to separate seminal fluid. A soft catheter is used to deposit the sperm directly into the uterus at the time of ovulation. IUI process increases the number of sperm inserted in the uterus and thus increases the possibility of conception. If the sperm fertilizes eggs, then pregnancy happens. IUI is a simple procedure which takes only around 15 to 20 minutes.

The success rate of IUI depends upon several factors such as female partner's age, health condition, fertility drugs used and others. Intrauterine Insemination is a simple and less expensive process than IVF.

The rise in LH hormones indicates that ovulation will take place very soon. Ovulation is stimulated using LH surge or by an HCG injection. The IUI procedure will be carried out after 24 to 36 hours after the surge.

The semen is separated from the seminal fluid and the sperm is directly inserted into the uterus using a catheter. There are significant chances of fertilization, as the number of sperms placed in the uterus can be increased via the process.

The IUI process can be completed within a short span of time and involves almost no discomforts as compared to other processes.
