ICI vs. IUI

So we are trying to decide if we are going to do another IUI or do a ICI. I had never heard of an ICI before. But it is the same as an IUI except it is unwashed, and there are more sperm supposedly available and it's cheaper. My RE told me that this is what they typically get when they do donor sperm inseminations. I am wondering if anyone has had success with these vs the IUI. Please comment either way Thanks!

I am considering trying ICI in the future but that's only because I am young, I have no fertility problems myself and I successfully got pregnant on my first attempt of an IUI. I know that the odds of getting pregnant using an ICI are lower but I found the IUI incredibly uncomfortable and I am hoping that I am an ideal candidate for ICI. I figure that when you weigh out that ICI is less expensive but also has lower success rates it is likely to be more expensive because it will take more tries.
Just my two cents.
