IVF vs IUI: what is the difference?

IUI and IVF are both fertility treatments, but they work differently and suit different medical situations.

IUI places prepared sperm directly into the uterus around ovulation. IVF involves fertilizing eggs outside the body and transferring embryos. Your doctor will recommend the most appropriate option after assessment.
