is iui the treatment i need?? Im not sure.

I have question. Please excuse my ignorance. But I want to know if the IUI is the treatment that I need. I have one child from a previous marriage and would like to have another child by my ex husband. At this time we are both in committed relationships, but I def want another child and I want my children to have the same parents. My ex and I have been separated for over 4 years and we are def not having a sexual relationship to conceive.
So would the IUI be the method I would look into for this situation. Any assistance in this matter would be so greatly appreciated.
Thanks

Hi there,
Depending on if there are no problems you could probably do a cervical insemination (the sperm are not washed with a CI).
An IUI is used to bypass any issues in the cervix which alot of us have.
Hope that helps!

An IUI should be ok...but you should talk to a fertility center that will discuss it with you.

The IUI will take his sperm and place it where the egg will hopefully meet it and fertilize....well, in a nutshell anyway. This isn't a guarantee that it will happen but over a few cycles if neither one of you have any issues it should be fine.

Good luck with whatever you both decide.
