Hello,

Root canal procedure itself is not contraindicated during IUI process. Root canal procedure needs anaesthesia, antibiotics, a painkiller and anti-inflammatory drugs.

These can affect implantation and pregnancy. So better not to undergo root canal procedure until you finish your IUI treatment. Better to discuss the same with your infertility doctor.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Kaushal Bhavsar, Pulmonologist
