Results: Following cesarean section, the neonate was kept in strict isolation.

Article Synopsis
  • The study checks how effective and risky two fertility treatments, IUI and IVF, are and how much they cost in the UK from 2012 to 2016.
  • It finds that even though IVF has a higher success rate for getting pregnant (about 27% compared to IUI's 11%), IUI is safer and costs less overall.
  • IUI treatment is cheaper and leads to fewer complications, like multiple pregnancies, making it a better choice for many people compared to IVF.
