IUI (Intrauterine Insemination)
Understanding IUI (Intrauterine Insemination)
Intrauterine Insemination (IUI) is a common fertility treatment that boosts the chances of conception by placing sperm directly into the uterus. At RMA of Michigan, our expert team uses IUI to help individuals and couples facing fertility challenges, especially those with unexplained infertility or mild male factor issues. We are committed to providing personalized care and support, leveraging advanced technology to achieve exceptional success rates for our patients.
Key Features and Benefits of IUI
Minimally Invasive
Intrauterine insemination (IUI) is a straightforward and minimally invasive fertility treatment that provides a less stressful option for individuals facing conception challenges, making it a preferred choice over more complex medical procedures.
Cost-Effective Solution
Intrauterine Insemination (IUI) is a cost-effective fertility treatment option that appeals to individuals and couples trying to conceive, offering a simpler and less invasive alternative to more expensive procedures.
Increased Success Rate
Intrauterine Insemination (IUI) paired with ovulation-inducing medications can greatly improve pregnancy rates for couples experiencing fertility issues by increasing the number of eggs available for fertilization.

Understanding the IUI Process
How IUI Works at RMA of Michigan
1
Initial Consultation and Evaluation
RMA of Michigan offers a comprehensive fertility assessment for successful IUI treatment, including a review of medical history, physical exams, and diagnostic tests like hormone level blood tests, ultrasound scans, and semen analysis.
2
Ovulation Induction and Monitoring
To enhance success rates, IUI is aligned with natural or induced ovulation using medications like Clomiphene Citrate or Gonadotropins to stimulate egg production. The process is closely monitored with ultrasound and blood tests to time insemination optimally.
3
Sperm Preparation
On the day of the procedure, a sperm sample is collected and undergoes “sperm washing” to separate the healthiest sperm, enhancing their quality and mobility for the procedure.
