In this procedure, first has to ensure that the woman is producing some eggs by giving her some medication or even without them. After that there is monitoring of follicle by serial Sonography. When the egg is ready, at that time, have to take husband’s semen sample in the laboratory and separate the best quality sperm from it and push a highly concentrated solution of motile spermatozoa inside the uterine cavity of the woman, so it is in a way assisting the natural processes a little bit, so that highly motile sperm is able to reach the egg and produce fertilization and may result in pregnancy.
This procedure is very simple. It’s an OPD procedure where you do not require any admissions and you may resume your normal routine activities immediately after the procedure. In about 2 weeks’ time from the procedure, you get to know the results.
