Full Description
Intrauterine insemination (IUI), also known as artificial insemination, is a fertility treatment that uses a catheter to place washed sperm directly into the uterus. Its aim is to increase the number of sperm reaching the fallopian tubes and subsequently increase the chances of fertilisation (American Pregnancy Association).
This book is part of the Infertility Management series. Beginning with an overview of Intrauterine Insemination, the following chapters guide readers step by step through the process, from basic science to clinical application. Ethical, psychosocial and medicolegal aspects are also covered.
