IUI or intrauterine insemination is the process by which one follows the cycle of a woman, either naturally or with a little bit of stimulation drugs in order for an egg to be released naturally within the woman. At the same time, sperm is prepared in the lab, and around the time of ovulation, it is inserted and placed within the womb. Then, natural conception hopefully takes place within the woman's body.
