With approximately 20% of couples experiencing difficulty in conceiving, a major proportion of them may require assistance in managing their infertility. Intrauterine insemination (IUI) is a very effective, inexpensive, first-line treatment in properly selected cases and is being increasingly used by clinics around the world, as it is less invasive than other techniques, such as GIFT and ZIFT, and can be utilized outside sophisticated assisted conception units.

Presenting an up-to-date review of IUI, this genuinely comprehensive text has been written by a top-class team of authors, and contains clinical assessment of couples and the use of IUI techniques, the basic information needed to set up and run an efficient IUI unit, as well as an in-depth review of the underlying science involved.
