What is IUI?
Intrauterine Insemination (IUI) is a simple, non-surgical fertility treatment that involves placing specially prepared sperm directly into a woman’s uterus around the time of ovulation. This increases the chances of sperm reaching and fertilizing the egg — helping couples achieve pregnancy naturally, with minimal intervention.
At Shree Clinic, we offer personalized IUI treatments that focus on precision timing, thorough evaluation, and emotional support — giving couples renewed hope on their fertility journey.
When is IUI Recommended?
IUI is often the first-line fertility treatment for couples who have mild or unexplained infertility. It is also used when:
- The male partner has low sperm count or motility (mild male infertility)
- There are unexplained causes of infertility after routine evaluation
- The woman has mild endometriosis
- There are cervical mucus problems that hinder sperm movement
- Couples are using donor sperm
- There are sexual or psychological issues affecting natural conception
At Shree Clinic, we ensure thorough pre-IUI evaluation of both partners to design the most effective and safe treatment plan.
How is IUI Performed?
The IUI process is simple, safe, and usually painless.
- Ovulation Monitoring:
We track the woman’s ovulation cycle using ultrasound scans and hormonal monitoring to determine the perfect timing for insemination. - Semen Preparation:
A semen sample (from partner or donor) is washed and processed in a laboratory to separate healthy, active sperm from seminal fluid and debris. - Insemination:
The prepared sperm is placed directly into the uterus using a thin, flexible catheter. This takes only a few minutes and does not require anesthesia. - Rest & Follow-up:
After a short rest period, you can resume normal activities the same day. A pregnancy test is done after about two weeks to check the outcome.
Success Rate of IUI
The success rate of IUI depends on several factors such as age, cause of infertility, and overall reproductive health.
On average, IUI success rates range between 10% to 20% per cycle, and may increase with repeated cycles or combined treatments.
We at Shree Clinic maximize success through:
- Accurate cycle monitoring
- Expert ovulation timing
- Advanced sperm processing techniques
- Personalized medication support (if required)
Advantages of IUI
- Minimally invasive and painless
- Affordable compared to IVF
- No anesthesia or hospitalization needed
- Short procedure time and fast recovery

Possible Risks
IUI is a very safe procedure. However, mild side effects can occasionally occur, such as:
- Slight cramping or spotting after the procedure
- Multiple pregnancy (if fertility medicines are used)
- Rare risk of infection
At Shree Clinic, we minimize all risks through meticulous care, sterile techniques, and expert supervision.
