What is IUI and How Successful is it?

Intrauterine Insemination (IUI) is often one of the first fertility treatments recommended to couples facing difficulty conceiving — yet it’s also one of the most misunderstood. In this video, Dr. Namrata Ravindra Yeole, Fertility Specialist at Cloudnine Hospital, Pari Chowk, Noida, explains what exactly happens during an IUI cycle, how it increases the chances of fertilisation, and who can benefit most from it. She also highlights how IUI is particularly effective for couples with mild male infertility, ovulation issues, or unexplained infertility. Through a step-by-step explanation, Dr. Yeole simplifies the IUI process — from ovarian stimulation and follicular monitoring to sperm preparation and insemination — helping couples understand how it works and what to expect. IUI is safe, quick, and offers many couples a realistic path to parenthood without the need for advanced procedures like IVF.
