IVF and IUI: Understanding the Essentials
- IVF (In Vitro Fertilization): IVF, or In Vitro Fertilization, is a complex series of procedures designed to assist with conception.

IVF is a widely recognised and effective treatment for various fertility issues.

- IUI (Intrauterine Insemination) : IUI, or Intrauterine Insemination, is a less invasive fertility treatment where sperm is directly placed into the uterus around the time of ovulation. This increases the chances of sperm reaching the egg, making it a popular choice for couples with mild fertility issues.

Dr. Abhilash offers customised IUI treatments to enhance the likelihood of conception, providing a viable option for those looking for less invasive interventions.
