IUI TREATMENT
Overview
IUI is the short form of Intrauterine Insemination, which is a method used to treat infertility
in women. The treatment done with the aim of fertilisation, involves the placement of
sperm inside the uterus of a woman around the time of ovulation. With IUI treatment, there
is an increase in the number of sperm that would reach the fallopian tube thereby,
enhancing the chance of fertilisation. IUI is considered to be a low-risk line of treatment

What are the risks?
The procedure of IUI treatment may lead to a small risk of infection, though it is rare as
doctors use sterile instruments. However, in case medicines are being used to instigate
the process of ovulation, it may lead to conception of multiple babies. As, the fertility
medicines will enhance the chances of more than one egg being released. Though the
doctor will be cautious about balancing the medicines to control the release of eggs.
Sometimes, the ovaries tend to over-respond to the medicines and a large number of eggs
are released, which can lead to fluid build-up in the abdomen. In case you experience any
of the following symptoms, you should contact your doctor at the earliest :
- Dizziness
- Vomiting
- Sudden weight gain
- Shortness of breath
- Pain in the pelvic area
- Increase in the abdominal area
Procedure of IUI Treatment
Before the procedure of the IUI treatment begins, a specimen of the sperm is to be collected and prepared. Once this is done, the female patient will be prepared for the treatment. Using a mild cleaning solution the cervix and vaginal tissues around will be cleaned. After that the washed sperm is taken into a syringe with which a small catheter is attached. Then the catheter is passed through the cervix and then the sperm is injected into the patient’s uterus. Once the doctor thinks that the process is over, catheter and speculum are removed and the patient is asked to rest for a while.
Generally, the procedure of IUI treatment in Hyderabad is carried out without medicines, but for patients who need ovulation-stimulating medication, the doctors will carefully monitor and the condition of the eggs. In such cases, the procedure is performed when the patient is ovulating.
