[quote=Anonymous]I was told to try 3 courses of IUI with Clomid before trying ICSI. I started to look at the stats and found this website http://www.advancedfertility.com/insem.htm (scroll to the bottom fo rthe chart) which based on my husband results, gave us 0.2% chance of conceiving naturally but only a 2.5% (with Clomid) chance of conceiving with IUI so was a bit miffed as to why they suggested IUI- 2.5% is hardly good odds. This site also states "Studies have shown that intrauterine insemination can be effective for some cases associated with poor sperm quality. However, if the total motile sperm count at the time of insemination (after the processing) is less than 5 million, the chances for pregnancy are substantially lower." My husbands results were 1.8m so I feel like we should not have been encouraged to try IUI.[/quote]
