With our IUI package at Apricity, partner sperm can be used, or we can assist in providing donor sperm. This makes IUI a common fertility pathway for same-sex female couples, or women without a partner. IUI can also be the treatment of choice for women in heterosexual relationships, or single women, who may have problems with ovulation. In this case, medication included in our package price is used to stimulate the ovaries, increasing the chances of pregnancy. Both stimulated and natural IUI treatment can be done with either partner sperm, or with our available donor sperm. For the treatment to be successful, the fallopian tubes must be healthy and without blockages. If this isn’t the case, our IVF packages may be a more suitable alternative.
For natural IUI treatment, our specialists will begin by carrying out tests to determine the correct time of ovulation. In the case of stimulated IUI treatment, patients will also begin with hormone therapy, to assist egg production in the ovaries. Following this, the donor or partner sperm is washed and processed, leaving only the most active sperm remaining. Insemination is a quick and simple procedure, where the washed sperm is inserted into the uterus using a fine catheter. After successful insemination, a pregnancy test is arranged around two weeks later.
IUI is a less invasive and more natural form of treatment than IVF, and one of our most common pathways for donor sperm pregnancy. However, where they may be a problem with partner sperm, or with female fertility, the chance of pregnancy can decrease. For this reason, it’s common that multiple cycles of IUI are necessary, or IVF is offered as an alternative treatment.

The HFEA considers that there isn't enough evidence to support the efficacy of some "add-on" treatments such as time-lapse imaging or PGS, which is why we do not include them in our standard pricing packages. We also do not include non-routine tests such as Natural Killer Cells or DNA fragmentation, although if required we would be happy to arrange them for you at additional cost.
