Infertility is a challenge go to through together
Learn the basics of superovulation and intrauterine insemination, in short SO-IUI. Superovulation and intrauterine insemination is usually a combined procedure done together.
Superovulation, according to KK Women’s and Children’s Hospital, is a procedure where: “two to three ovarian follicles (eggs) are stimulated and brought to maturation and ovulation.” Then comes the intrauterine insemination, “in which the prepared sperm is placed directly into the uterus. This procedure will enhance conception for the couple.”
In case you’re wondering, the SO-IUI procedure does not require you to stay at the hospital, it can be done on an outpatient basis.
