How Come It’s Done?
A couple’s chances of getting pregnant depend on several factors. Most couples who undergo intrauterine insemination have the following issues
- Sperm Donations: The most often used technique for women who need to conceive with donated sperm is intrauterine insemination (IUI). Frozen donor sperm samples are obtained from accredited labs and thawed before the IUI process.
- Unexpected Infertility: As the initial therapy for infertility that cannot be explained, IUI is usually combined with ovulation-inducing medications.
- Endometriosis-related Infertility: IUI and taking medications to develop high-quality eggs usually used as the first line of treatment for infertility caused by endometriosis.
- Mild Infertility Due To The Male Factor (Subfertility): Analyzing your partner’s sperm may indicate abnormalities in sperm size and shape, inadequate sperm motility, or below-average sperm concentration as one of the first steps in the medical diagnosis of infertility (morphology).
- Infertility Due To A Cervical Issue: The cervix, which situates at the bottom end of the uterus, creates the entrance between your vagina and uterus. The mucus produced by the cervix and released around ovulation facilitates the easy migration of sperm from the vagina to the fallopian tubes. Yet, excessive cervical mucus can obstruct the sperm’s path if it is too thick. The cervix itself may potentially block sperm from reaching the egg. Scarring from procedures like biopsies or other operations may cause the cervix to thicken. IUI bypasses your cervix and injects more sperm into your uterus, increasing the number of sperm that are available to meet the waiting egg.
- Infertility Due To Ovulatory Factors: IUI is also an option for women whose infertility is due to ovulation-related issues, such as irregular ovulation or fewer eggs.
- Sperm Allergy: Infrequently, infertility can brought on by an allergy to semen proteins. Where the semen meets the skin after ejaculation entering the vagina, there is redness, burning, and swelling. You can avoid the symptoms by using a condom, which also prevents pregnancy. As many of the proteins in semen eliminats before the sperm is injected, IUI treatment by Dr Ranjeeta Gupta in Medicheck, Faridabad (Haryana), can be helpful if your sensitivity is severe.
Risks
Intrauterine insemination carries a small risk of serious complications and is typically a simple and secure operation. Risks include:
- Infection: A very slim probability exists that an infection will develop after the procedure.
- Spotting: The procedure of placing the catheter in the uterus can occasionally result in a little amount of vaginal bleeding. This often has little effect on a woman’s chances of becoming pregnant.
- Several Pregnancies: IUI by itself does not increase a woman’s risk of twins, triplets, or further pregnancies. Two dangers that are higher for multiple pregnancies than for single pregnancies are premature labour and low infant weight.
Discussing the potential risks and advantages of the operation with our doctor, Dr Ranjeeta Gupta, a medical specialist, as well as adhering to all pre-and post-operative instructions, are essential to reducing the likelihood of complications.
How Do You Prepare?
For intrauterine insemination, careful planning is necessary before the procedure:
- Getting the semen sample ready: You can prepare sperm from a frozen donor by thawing a vial, or your partner can bring a sample of sperm to the physician’s office. The sample cleans in a way that separates the highly active, normal sperm from inferior sperm and other debris to prevent any sperm reactions in the woman’s body from interfering with fertilisation.
- Keeping track of the ovulation cycle: It’s important to keep an eye out for indications of approaching ovulation because the timing of IUI is crucial. This could done by employing a urine ovulation prediction test that you can perform at home to find out when your body produces a luteinizing hormone in a spike or burst (LH).
- Selecting the ideal timing: The majority of IUIs happen a day or two after ovulation is identified. Dr Ranjeeta Gupta will give you a timetable for the time of your treatment and what to expect.
What Should You Expect?
The intrauterine insemination technique typically lasts 15 to 20 minutes and occurs in a medical office or clinic. IUI is a quick procedure that doesn’t include any medication or painkillers. The procedure carries out by Dr Ranjeeta Gupta at Medicheck hospital.
Throughout the process
You lay on an examination table with your legs in stirrups. A speculum inserts into the vagina by your healthcare professional, simulating a Pap test. In Medicheck clinic, Dr Ranjeeta Gupta performing the procedure will:
- Joins a long, thin, flexible tube to the end of a vial containing a healthy sperm sample (catheter) and places the catheter through the cervical hole, into the vagina, and the uterus.
- injects the sperm sample into the uterus through the tube.
- removes the speculum and then the catheter
Following the procedure
You spend a brief time on your back after fertilisation. You can get dressed and resume your regular daily activities as soon as the operation is finished. After the treatment, you can see some minor spotting for a day or two.
Results
Before performing a home pregnancy test, wait two weeks. Testing too soon could result in the following outcome:
- False-negative. The test result may be negative even though you are pregnant if pregnancy hormones have not yet reached detectable levels.
- False-positive. If you’re taking an ovulation-inducing drug like HCG, the drug that left in your system could signal pregnancy even if you aren’t pregnant.
In our clinic, specialist doctor, Dr Ranjeeta Gupta will advise you to go back for a blood test, which is more sensitive in identifying pregnancy hormones after fertilisation, about two weeks after the results of your home kit.
