What Is Intrauterine Insemination?
Intrauterine insemination (IUI) is an effective fertility treatment offered at the Center for Human Reproduction that involves carefully placing sperm directly into the uterus to increase the likelihood of achieving a successful pregnancy. IUI is ideal for couples dealing with male fertility issues, such as low sperm count, sexual dysfunction, or reduced sperm mobility. It may also be an effective option for women with cervical factor infertility where the cervical mucus prevents sperm from reaching the uterus. Intrauterine insemination allows for a more direct path for the sperm, enhancing your chances of conception. Dr. Norbert Gleicher and Dr. David H. Barad perform this procedure with expertise and compassion, providing hope for couples facing fertility challenges. To learn more about IUI or to see if you are an ideal candidate, contact our center in New York, NY today.
How Does Intrauterine Insemination Work?
Intrauterine insemination is performed in a private treatment room at the Center for Human Reproduction. The IUI process will begin with ovulation induced by medication to stimulate the ovaries to produce multiple eggs. Your progress will be closely monitored through blood tests and ultrasounds to identify the best timing for intrauterine insemination. Once the eggs are ready, an hCG injection is administered to trigger ovulation. Your IUI procedure will be scheduled during this time. Sperm, either from your partner or a donor, is carefully prepared and then introduced directly into the uterus with a flexible catheter, increasing the chances of successful fertilization.
What Are the Benefits of Intrauterine Insemination?
IUI is a popular fertility treatment among our patients in New York, NY due to its many benefits. Dr. Gleicher and Dr. Barad will tailor the IUI process to meet your unique fertility needs. Some of the primary benefits of intrauterine insemination include:
- Overcoming issues with cervical mucus that can block sperm
- Improving pregnancy chances in cases of male infertility
- Offering a less invasive, more cost-effective alternative to in vitro fertilization (IVF)
- Accurately timing the introduction of sperm to coincide with ovulation for ideal results
- Allowing the use of either partner or donor sperm

I discovered your clinic when I was at my lowest. I happened on a video on your you tube channel titled, "The burning out pcos." Just that video gave me much needed hope and direction because I couldn't get a diagnosis of why I was cold, lethargic and weak. I decided to become a patient for my fertility problems and fortunately I could consult online. Extending help internationally is really helpful. It is not easy to find this calibre, everywhere. I was 43 when I told Dr Gleicher I couldn't afford to travel there to do my IVF. He made sure he gave me some nuggets of wisdom to go with. For one, he insisted that my numbers showed I could have a child using my own eggs, like I wanted. The one clinic in my country doubted I could have a child in my late 30s. Another clinic in another country in the region would not even consult with me because I was 43 and not willing to use donor eggs. Another was willing to take me on but we had 2 failed IVF cycles. They also recommended donor eggs. I'm happy to share that I conceived naturally at 45 and I am looking at a perfectly healthy 5 month old baby boy. May the good Lord bless you and your work. You are truly doing the work of God. I could withstand the pressure to take donor eggs because you were very clear that my desire was possible. Congratulations and best wishes!

The office is beautiful and spotless. From the moment you arrive, the staff welcomes you with kindness and professionalism. They are very formal yet friendly, making the entire experience pleasant. One thing I really appreciated is that they do not question you or make you feel uncomfortable; they simply treat you with respect and efficiency. Overall, consultations here are quite relaxed rather than stressful or nerve-wracking.
