IUI with low sperm motility how to improve chances of success ?
2 weeks ago
My husband has low sperm motility, and our doctor suggested IUI. We are worried that his condition might prevent success. Are there ways to improve the chances before the procedure?

Yes, sperm quality can sometimes be improved with lifestyle changes, such as quitting smoking, reducing alcohol intake, managing stress, and maintaining a healthy weight.
Supplements or medications may also be prescribed to enhance sperm motility. During IUI, sperm is specially prepared in the lab to select the healthiest and most motile ones, which increases the likelihood of fertilization.
Combining these measures with proper timing of ovulation can significantly improve IUI success rates even in mild male factor infertility.
