Hello dr. This is arun from chennai and i am 27 yrs old. But still i was not the age. I am able to satisfy my wife. Wie don't have baby for last two years. She is taking treatment for PCOs. I took semen test, the count is normal but the mortility is very less. I am taking CCQ-25. But now dr adviced to take IUI. Please advice the possibility of my wife's pregnancy. Thanks Arun
Dear Arun, the success of IUI depends on many factors, but even in best IUI/IVF centers, the success rate of pregnancy is 10-20% and a 'take home pregnancy' (achieving full term of pregnancy) is even lower. PCOS in your wife adds to the low success rate. PCOS women need more diet and exercise regime than medications alone. Quitting smoking and alcohol along with a healthy diet is good for improving sperm motility. I will recommend you to first look into lifestyle modification for 6 months and then go for IUI. If IUI fails for 6 cycles, you can go for the next steps of IVF.
