Using IVF increases your chances of actually conceiving. If you are having difficulty getting pregnant for whatever reason, you will find that IVF will greatly improve your likelihood of conceiving. If you suffer from endometriosis, infertility, or damaged or blocked fallopian tubes, using IVF will greatly increase the chance that you will actually be able to get pregnant. Men who have infertility problems, a low sperm count, poor quality of sperm, or compromised motility, will find that IVF ensures that they are able to impregnate their partner.

Intrauterine insemination is another fertility procedure that has helped couples conceive. In this procedure, the “washed” sperm are injected directly into the uterus of the woman the day after an egg is released. The idea behind this procedure is that the sperm swim into the fallopian tubes to fertilize the egg.
