I have a question. Is it possible to purchase a IUI/ ART vial if you are doing an IUI not IVF?? Or do you have to purchase IUI premium?? What is the difference?

    Hi J -

    A.R.T. vials are meant only for IVF procedures. They contain less sperm and are not recommended for IUI procedures.

    The IUI Premium vials (pre-washed for physician use) or ICI Premium vials(used at home or your physician washes prior to insemination) are used in standard insemination procedures.

    Good luck,

    Yes. The only difference is the A.R.T. vials contain less sperm than the premium vials.
