How are you? Did you watch the shootout? They did us proudly didn’t they England and here’s hoping they switch off their mobiles for a few days and can enjoy what they have achieved!
I was at the British Podcast Awards this weekend and I tell you, there are some amazing pods for you to check out amongst the winners, check them out here.
This week’s episode is answering the question is IUI worth it, in a conversation with consultant Rami Wakim who, among other areas of expertise, specialises in Intrauterine Insemination (IUI).
We wanted to chat with Rami to find out if these days IUI is really worth it or should you go straight to IVF? Kate mentioned that, in her opinion, she has seen fewer and fewer IUI procedures performed over recent years.
If you are considering it, Rami starts off by giving us a really interesting insight into the history of IUI. Did you know that the first successful IUI took place in 1953? It then became more popular as a fertility treatment in the ’70s and ’80s. However, only 35 countries consider IUI as a method of Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART) and only 30 consider it an appropriate treatment for single women.
So, is it worth it or is it just sex in a clinical room? Have a listen and tell us your thoughts, you can leave us a review, which would be kind of you. Just click here.
The other thing I wanted to make sure you knew about was our closed Facebook group, where we continue the conversations and you can come over and say hello to the lovely bunch of peeps who keep each other sane by clicking here.
