Should I move on to IVF after three failed IUI attempts?

By Andrea Rodrigo B.Sc., M.Sc. (embryologist).
Last Update: 01/09/2019

Although studies indicate an increase in pregnancy chances after the fourth attempt with artificial insemination, depending on the case, it is possible that, after three failed IUI attempts, your doctor refers you to IVF. This depends on each situation as well as on aspects such as the causes of infertility, the woman's age, the causes that led to failure of previous IUI attempts, etc.
