At Panama Fertility, every IUI treatment is customized to each patient’s needs, ensuring optimal results and comfort.
Artificial Insemination vs. IVF: What’s the Difference?
How IUI Differs from IVF
While both IUI (Intrauterine Insemination) and IVF (In Vitro Fertilization) help patients conceive, they are very different in process, complexity, and cost.
Feature | Artificial Insemination (IUI) | In Vitro Fertilization (IVF) |
Procedure | Sperm placed directly in uterus | Eggs fertilized in lab, then transferred |
Invasiveness | Non-surgical | Minimally invasive |
Cost | $500–$1,000 (Panama) / $2,000+ (U.S.) | $6,500–$20,000 |
Ideal For | Mild infertility, donor sperm | Complex infertility cases |
Success Rate | 10–20% per cycle | 50–70% per cycle |
Success Rates and Ideal Candidates
Step-by-Step: The Artificial Insemination Process at Panama Fertility
- Step 1: Ovulation Monitoring and Preparation
The process begins with hormonal monitoring and ultrasound scans to determine the best time for insemination.
Medications may be prescribed to stimulate the ovaries and improve egg quality. - Step 2: Sperm Collection and Washing
A sperm sample (from a partner or donor) is collected and “washed” in the laboratory to separate healthy, motile sperm from seminal fluid.
This ensures only the strongest sperm are used for - Step 3: Insemination Procedure
During ovulation, the prepared sperm is gently inserted into the uterus using a thin catheter.
The procedure is quick (about 10–15 minutes), painless, and requires no anesthesia or recovery time. - Step 4: Pregnancy Test and Follow-Up
After about two weeks, a pregnancy test confirms whether the insemination was successful.
If not, another cycle may be attempted or an advanced treatment like IVF may be recommended
