Which specialist performs IUI?

IUI places prepared sperm inside the uterus around the time of ovulation. A reproductive medicine specialist reviews your fertility history, checks whether IUI is suitable, and may arrange ovulation monitoring or medication. Clinic staff prepare the sample, and the clinician or trained fertility professional passes a thin catheter through the cervix. The exact team and timing depend on your plan and the clinic's arrangements.

Arrange a consultation with a reproductive medicine specialist and bring previous tests, treatment records and a list of medicines. Confirm how ovulation will be tracked, when the sample is collected, whether you need a full bladder, and who to contact if you develop pain or bleeding. Follow medication instructions and attend monitoring visits as scheduled.

Contact the fertility clinic for severe pelvic pain, marked abdominal swelling, heavy bleeding, fever or feeling faint after IUI or fertility medication. Seek urgent help for collapse, severe breathing difficulty or intense pain. Ask for same-day advice if you are worried about symptoms during the treatment cycle.

Ask who will perform the insemination, how ovulation is confirmed, how the sperm sample is prepared, what discomfort to expect, which medicines are involved and when pregnancy testing is advised.
