IUI In Lubbock, TX

IUI Procedure

An intrauterine insemination (IUI) is a gentle and minimally invasive procedure where a sperm sample is meticulously created and injected into a woman's uterus, aiming to facilitate fertilization and a pregnancy. Notably, there's no need for anesthesia, as it's not a surgical procedure; instead, it harnesses the body's natural processes. Furthermore, there's no downtime involved, allowing individuals to resume their daily activities afterward comfortably. This method can utilize sperm from either a partner or a donor, offering flexibility and reassurance throughout the process.

Who Is This For?

IUIs present a viable option for individuals encountering fertility hurdles that may not require resorting to IVF for conception. Examples of such conditions include unexplained infertility, hormonal imbalances and ovulation disorders, multiple unsuccessful ovulation induction cycles, cervical disorders, mild sperm issues, and same-sex couples seeking to achieve pregnancy through donor sperm insemination.

The Process

  • For the majority of cases, an IUI procedure involves the administration of medications aimed at stimulating the maturation of one or more eggs in the ovary, regulating ovarian follicle development timing, and determining when to "trigger" ovulation and perform IUI.

    While some IUI cycles may not require any medications, and others may involve taking 5 days of pills, the specifics depend on individual circumstances.

    Throughout your IUI cycle, it's probable that you will undergo monitoring to assess your body's response to the medications and to track the progress of ovulation, determining when it is approaching or has taken place.

  • This typically involves washing and concentrating the sperm to remove impurities and enhance its quality before it is carefully injected into the woman's uterus to increase the chances of fertilization and pregnancy.

  • IUI procedures are typically conducted around ovulation, i.e., the period when the egg is released from the ovary and enters the Fallopian tube, where fertilization may take place.

  • Approximately two weeks following the IUI procedure, you can opt to take either an at-home or clinical pregnancy test to ascertain whether embryo implantation has taken place. Depending on the outcome of this test, further follow-up monitoring may be recommended to assess the progress of the pregnancy.
