Is it Compulsory to Lie Down After IUI?

Lying down after an IUI procedure is not compulsory but is often recommended for a short period. Some women choose to lie down for 10 to 15 minutes to allow the sperm to swim towards the fallopian tubes. However, research on the optimal position after IUI is inconclusive, and the decision to lie down or resume normal activities is a personal choice. It is advisable to discuss this with your fertility expert, who can provide guidance based on your specific circumstances.
