Is It Safe To Undergo Laproscopy After 4 Cycles Of Iui ?
Hi, I and my husband are married for 4 years and we are both of 29 years. We are trying for a baby for almost 2 and half years. I had a chemical pregnancy once, then we consulted a gynae, she suggested to go for IUI as my ovary ruptures before appropriate size and my husband s sperm motility is low with 60% of abnormality. After 4 cycles of iui, I couldn t conceive. Now I need to go under laparoscopy , I am bit worried. Please suggest.

Hi;
welcome to HealthcareMagic
The main criteria to get pregnancy are:-
-normal and regular menstrual cycles
-proper formation and rupture of ovum
-proper and patent fallopian tubes
-normal semen analysis of the male partner
If these conditions are fulfilled then you can get pregnant.The problem in failure of IUI has to be identified and it needs to be seen that the fallopian tubes are patent or blocked before going ahead with the further treatment.So you can go ahead with Laparoscopy.For improvement of motility of sperms your husband can start antioxidant tablets containing lycopene;Co-enzyme Q10 and the semen report should improve in 2-3 months.Please get the scopy done and try again.
All the best.
Thanks
