IUI Treatment in Jaipur

It’s possible, but most women undergo IUI with some form of medication, especially if they have irregular ovulation. Medication helps stimulate your ovaries to release one or more eggs and increases your chances of conception. If you already have regular cycles, sometimes IUI can be done without medication, but that depends on your specific situation.

Yes, if necessary, IUI can be done using donor sperm. This is quite common for couples facing male infertility issues, or for individuals or couples choosing sperm donation. The sperm is processed in a lab, so we ensure only the healthiest sperm is used for the procedure.

IUI may not be the best option if you have blocked fallopian tubes, as the sperm would still need the tubes to reach the egg. In such cases, IVF (In Vitro Fertilization) might be a better option, as IVF bypasses the need for the fallopian tubes altogether.

Yes, many women who had a miscarriage go on to have successful pregnancies with IUI. If you had a miscarriage, it’s important to take time to recover emotionally and physically, but IUI can be a great option for women who are ready to try again.

Yes, a few simple lifestyle changes can make a big difference in your chances of success:

1. Try to maintain a healthy weight; being either underweight or overweight can affect your fertility.
2. Avoid smoking and excessive drinking, as these can decrease fertility in both men and women.
3. Eat a balanced diet, focusing on whole grains, vegetables, proteins, and fruits.
4. Limit stress as much as possible, consider relaxing activities like yoga or meditation to help your body stay in balance.
5. Exercise regularly, but don’t overdo it.

If IUI doesn’t work after 3 to 4 cycles, it can be disappointing, but don’t lose hope. At that point, we’ll reassess your situation. We might suggest trying IVF, which has a higher success rate, or we may explore other options like medication adjustments or even the use of donor sperm or eggs.

Most couples will need around 1 to 3 cycles of IUI. However, this depends on your specific situation. Some couples may require more cycles, especially if there are underlying fertility issues. If IUI doesn’t work after several attempts, we may recommend moving to IVF.

The IUI procedure itself is generally not painful. You might experience some mild cramping or discomfort, but the procedure is quick and straightforward. Most women feel just fine afterward and can go back to their daily routine right away.

Yes, IUI can work if you have conditions like PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome) or endometriosis. In cases like these, your fertility expert may prescribe medications to help regulate your ovulation and improve the chances of a successful IUI.

IUI is much less invasive and less expensive than IVF. In IUI, sperm is placed directly into the uterus during ovulation, which is helpful for conditions like mild male infertility or unexplained infertility. On the other hand, IVF involves retrieving eggs from the ovaries, fertilizing them outside the body, and then transferring the embryo into the uterus. IVF is often recommended when IUI is not successful or if the fertility issue is more complex. IVF also has higher success rates, especially for women over 35 years of age.

Generally, we suggest trying IUI for about 3 to 4 cycles before considering IVF. If IUI doesn’t work after several attempts, IVF might be a better option, as it tends to have higher success rates. However, your fertility expert will guide you to the right treatment based on your situation.

Yes, women with irregular periods can still undergo IUI. In fact, many women with irregular cycles are prescribed medications (like Clomid) to regulate ovulation, increasing the chances of success. Your fertility expert will monitor your cycle closely with blood tests and ultrasounds to determine the best time for the insemination procedure.

You can usually return to work and resume your normal activities immediately after the IUI procedure. Some women experience mild cramping or spotting, but this shouldn’t prevent you from getting back to your routine.

After the IUI procedure, you will need to wait about 10 to 14 days before taking a pregnancy test. We will guide you through this process, and you can take a blood test to confirm the results. If it’s positive, we will continue to monitor your pregnancy with follow-up visits.

IUI can work for women over 40, but the success rate tends to be lower as age affects egg quality and fertility. However, IUI may still be successful for some women in their early 40s. For women over 40, we may recommend IVF as a more effective treatment option, depending on your overall fertility health.

Whether IUI is covered by insurance or not depends on your provider and policy. Some insurance plans cover fertility treatments, including IUI, but others may not. It’s best to check with your insurance company to see what’s covered. At Aastha Fertility, we help you with the cost breakdown and work with you to make the treatment more affordable.
