<h1>How much sperm is used for IUI?</h1>
For IUI treatment we recommend using 1 x IUI MOT10 straw or higher per cycle. If your fertility clinic consent, it is also possible to use ICI sperm. For treatment with ICI sperm, we recommend using 4 x ICI MOT5, 2 x ICI MOT10 or 1 x ICI MOT20 straw or higher, per cycle. Always consult your clinic for advice before you place your order.
When <a href="/en-us/us-shop/client/how-to/how-to-order/how-much-sperm-to-order/">ordering donor sperm</a> for IUI treatment, we recommend you <a href="/en-us/us-shop/client/how-to/how-to-order/reserving-your-order/">make a reservation for extra straws</a> to make sure that you have enough sperm from your favorite donor.
<h2>What sperm quality is required for IUI?</h2>
If you want to use IUI <a href="/en-us/us-shop/client/about-sperm-and-eggs/donor-sperm/">donor sperm</a> for your treatment, we recommend using 1 MOT10 straw. If you are going to use ICI sperm, the recommendation is 4 x ICI MOT5, 2 x ICI MOT10 or 1 x ICI MOT20 straw or higher per treatment.

<h2>What is the IUI success rate?</h2>
According to this <a href="https://www.verywellfamily.com/what-is-the-iui-success-rate-1960191" target="_blank" rel="noopener">study</a>, the success rate for IUI is around 18 % per cycle for women under 30 and proportionately declines with age. Compared to ICI treatment, the <a href="/en-us/us-shop/client/blog/iui-success-rates/">success rates of IUI</a> are slightly higher, but also come at a higher cost per treatment.
