IUI Clinics in Canada
Intrauterine insemination (IUI) is often a first-line fertility treatment because it is less invasive and lower cost than IVF. We list 76 Canadian fertility clinics offering IUI — used by couples experiencing infertility, single parents by choice, and same-sex couples using donor sperm. IUI typically costs $400 to $1,500 per cycle excluding donor sperm and medications. Ontario and Quebec directly insure eligible insemination services, while New Brunswick and PEI include eligible IUI costs in reimbursement programs; several other jurisdictions offer tax credits.

- Experience with both natural-cycle and stimulated IUI protocols
- Comfort working with donor sperm (international and known donors)
- Clear pricing for monitoring, the IUI procedure itself, and any required medications
- Flexibility for early-morning or weekend monitoring appointments
- Clear escalation criteria — when to consider moving to IVF

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does IUI cost in Canada?▼
IUI cycle pricing typically ranges from $400 to $1,500 depending on the clinic, plus monitoring (often $300 to $600), any medications, and donor sperm if applicable ($700 to $1,200 per vial).
What is the success rate of IUI?▼
Per-cycle success rates are typically 10 to 20 percent, depending on age, underlying fertility factors, and whether the cycle is medicated. Cumulative success across 3 to 6 cycles is meaningfully higher.
How many IUI cycles should I try before IVF?▼
Most fertility specialists recommend 3 to 6 IUI cycles before considering IVF, especially for unexplained infertility or mild male factor. For older patients or those with diminished ovarian reserve, the recommendation may be to escalate sooner.
Is IUI covered by provincial health insurance?▼
Ontario's program has no stated cycle limit for eligible AI or IUI, while Quebec insures up to six artificial inseminations per live birth. New Brunswick and PEI include eligible IUI costs in reimbursement programs, and several other jurisdictions offer tax credits rather than direct treatment funding.
Can I do IUI with donor sperm?▼
Yes — IUI is a common treatment for single parents by choice and same-sex female couples using donor sperm. Most Canadian fertility clinics work with Health Canada-approved international donor banks.
