Hi Saritha,
Dr. Purushottam welcomes you to HCM virtual clinic.
I have gone through your query.
I think I have understood your concern, I will try to suggest you the best possible treatment options.
1] As a procedure IUI is not at all harmful for mother or child.
2] IUI procedure involves deposition of sperms in the uterine cavity directly.
3] I will suggest you to get USG done, and tubal patency test like Hysterosalpingography done. And Husband's Semen analysis.
4] Usually day 10 to 20 of the cycle are the most fertile days, try to have sexual intercourse at least on alternate days in this period.
5] Avoid bakery products, deep fried foods, junk foods,refined flours and refined sugars. Have folic acid, B 12, Multi vitamin, multi mineral supplement on daily basis.
6] If needed IUI can be opted for , it is safe- painless- not harmful to mother or baby. But tubal patency must be established before hand.
7] Ovulation study on USG is advised from day 10 onward to confirm day of egg formation. On that day IUI is performed. Husband's semen is processed, and active sperms are transferred in the uterus.
8] Wish you be blessed with Bundle of joy.
I hope my answer helps you.
Thanks
