IUI washed v. IUI Premium washed

The donor that I am planning to use only has Premium washed vials available. Are their any statistics that show Premuim to be more effective that just washed? It makes me think that the chance of becoming pregnant may actually be less than the regular washing because there are less sperm in the vial...

    Hi mz -

    "Premium" is our standard vial. A.R.T. vials are only for IVF procedures.

    Washed or unwashed refers to the way the vial is prepared. Washed means it is ready to thaw and inseminate via IUI (generally by a doctor). Unwashed is ready for an ICI (at-home), or will be washed by your doctor and then inseminated.

    IUI = ICI+wash
