Overview
About infertility treatments
Having a baby is one of life’s great joys, but it’s not always easy. If you need help getting pregnant, UW Health Fertility Care is here for you. We offer all types of fertility treatments, including artificial insemination. It’s also known as intrauterine insemination, or IUI.
We know fertility issues are sensitive, and we protect your privacy at every stage. We also offer emotional support and encouragement as we provide medical care. We’ll help you through each step of the process.
About the treatment
What is artificial insemination?
IUI involves placing sperm directly inside your uterus to fertilize an egg. The sperm comes from a male partner or donor.
IUI may aid pregnancy by:
Bypassing issues in the cervix, which are sometimes the cause of infertility
Greatly increasing the number of sperm that reach an egg
Who is artificial insemination for?
IUI may help couples whose specific cause of infertility can’t be determined and women without a male partner. It’s also a good option for women with a male partner who has:
A genetic condition that parents want to avoid passing on
Low sperm count
No sperm
