IUI treatment

Hi everyone, I’m just wondering if there’s a certain weight you need to be to have IUI treatment? Is it similar to the criteria needed for IVF?

I think so, yes. Check your local CCG guidance

Yep same BMI criteria

Most fertility doctors only do it for less than a BMI of 44 to prevent risks gestational diabetes can be a big risk

@Stephanie the UK has much stricter limits, usually your BMI has to be below 35 for any fertility treatment

Privately it can be a bit higher, my clinic is 35. But on the NHS it's the same limit applied as to IVF, all assisted reproduction usually has the same qualifying criteria (usually below 30). Check the guidance for your local area online

@Charley got you. Yeah I think here in the US it's 44 and below. Not too sure. I'm not doing IUI, but thanks for the tip. I think it's best if the original poster checks with her country/state.
