Intrauterine insemination (IUI) is a fertility treatment where prepared sperm is placed directly into the uterus during ovulation. China's leading reproductive medicine centers perform thousands of IUI cycles annually with high success rates, using advanced sperm washing and timing protocols. The procedure is significantly more affordable than in Western countries while maintaining equivalent clinical standards.
Fertility Assessment & Monitoring
Comprehensive hormone testing, ultrasound monitoring of follicular development, and ovulation tracking to determine the optimal insemination window.
