IUI vs IVF

 A glimmer of hope is provided by fertility treatments for couples who have been attempting to conceive but have been unsuccessful. Intrauterine insemination (IUI) and in vitro fertilisation (IVF) are the two most popular treatments that can help couples have children (in-vitro fertilization)


IUI includes using a speculum to inject the sperm directly into the uterus. On the other hand, the IVF procedure involves surgically retrieving the female's eggs and fertilising them externally in a lab setting.

Before deciding which of the two alternatives is best for you, your fertility specialist may advise undergoing a few tests. You must be aware of certain key distinctions between IUI and IVF treatment. Here are some of them:

IUI is a less invasive technique since, as was already said, it entails inserting the cleansed sperm right into the woman's uterus. This is done while the woman is in her fertile window of her cycle. IUI can be carried out as part of your regular cycle or in conjunction with drugs to improve success rates. In comparison to IVF, it is less intrusive.

IUI isn't right for everyone: Despite being the first line of treatment for couples who are having problems becoming pregnant, IUI isn't always advised. IVF is typically advised for conditions including severe male infertility, IUI failure, or blocked fallopian tubes.

There are several steps in the IVF process: In comparison to IUI, IVF therapy takes a little longer. The steps consist of:

Before the beginning of the menstrual cycle, lab testing.

the stimulation of the ovaries to release a cycle's worth of eggs.

egg extraction from the ovaries.

laboratory fertilisation of eggs.

embryo transfer inside the uterus.

Cost differences: When comparing the costs of IUI and IVF procedures, there is a significant discrepancy. A single IUI cycle typically costs between 15 and 20,000 Indian rupees. It is crucial to remember that if you are unable to conceive in the first cycle, you could need to go through numerous cycles.

IVF, on the other hand, can run anything from 70k to 1,25,000 INR for a single cycle. The prices indicated above can differ from hospital to hospital.

IVF has a greater success rate: IVF has a higher success rate and increases the likelihood of conception, while being more expensive and physically taxing. However, age and medical history of the spouses have a significant impact on the likelihood of conception.
