IUI costs in India usually land somewhere between five thousand and thirty five thousand rupees, and honestly, where you fall in that range comes down to one main choice. Go natural, and you skip stimulation medication entirely, which keeps the bill low but also caps how well the cycle tends to work. Add medication, and hormone injections plus closer monitoring push the price up, though the odds per attempt improve too. City, clinic, and how many scans your body ends up needing all nudge that final number further.
According to Dr. Tanuja Uchil, Obstetrician and Gynecologist, in Mumbai, “Patients often look at one number and assume that’s the whole cost. A quote that skips the monitoring scans or the sperm wash fee looks lower at first, but those charges usually show up later, once the cycle is already underway.”
Comparing IUI quotes without knowing what each one actually includes?
What's Actually Included in an IUI Package?
A package quote can hide as much as it reveals, so it helps to know what should be inside it.
- Baseline consultation and ultrasound to confirm the cycle is a reasonable fit before anything starts.
- Ovulation monitoring through follicular scans, usually two to three visits depending on how you respond.
- The sperm wash and preparation itself, done just before the insemination.
- The insemination procedure and a follow up pregnancy test around two weeks later.
The fertility program at OMA Hospital lays out exactly what’s covered before your first cycle begins, not after.
How Much Does IUI Cost in India, Broken Down?
The total shifts a lot depending on which of these get added to a natural cycle.
| Component | Natural Cycle | Medicated Cycle |
| Base procedure fee | ₹5,000 to ₹10,000 | ₹8,000 to ₹12,000 |
| Stimulation medication | Not applicable | ₹3,000 to ₹10,000 |
| Monitoring scans | 1 to 2 scans | 2 to 4 scans |
| Sperm wash and prep | Included | Included |
| Typical total | ₹5,000 to ₹12,000 | ₹15,000 to ₹35,000 |
- Medication drives most of the difference: Injectable gonadotropins cost a lot more than clomiphene or letrozole tablets, and that gap alone often decides which price bracket a cycle lands in.
- Monitoring visits add up quietly: Follicular scans may be charged separately, and if the follicle takes longer to mature, additional monitoring visits may be needed.
- Donor sperm changes the number too: Using donor sperm may involve additional charges for screening, processing, and storage on top of the standard package.
- Multiple cycles are the real cost: Since IUI success rates are roughly 10 to 20 percent per cycle, more than one attempt may be needed.
