How do we decide if fertility drugs should be used in conjunction with IUI?
This decision should be made in consultation with your primary physician. In general, fertility drugs enhance a woman’s ability to become pregnant with IUI. Most patients choose to use either clomiphene citrate, an oral medication taken for five days shortly after menses begins. Alternatively, patients can choose injectable fertility drugs that are more aggressive in stimulating multiple egg release. The more eggs that a woman produces during a treatment, the higher the chance for success.
