Intrauterine insemination (IUI) is a simpler, quick clinic-based procedure where s***m is washed, concentrated, and placed directly into the uterus using a thin catheter, during ovulation. Fertilisation then happens inside the body🤍
In vitro fertilisation (IVF) is more complex, where hormones stimulate the ovaries to produce eggs, which are then retrieved and fertilised with s***m in a laboratory, before the embryo is transferred into the uterus, or frozen for later use. Here, fertilisation happens outside the body🧫
Both IUI and IVF are guided by fertility specialists, and recommended based on an individual’s age, cause of infertility and medical history. IUI is often considered first as it is less invasive and more affordable, while IVF is used for more complex cases or when IUI treatments have not been successful.
