Hello
Thanks for your query.
Known case of septate uterus with endometriosis ,treated surgically at the age of 29 years .

Married for two and half years .

I will like to know in details about your menstrual history and ovulation studies .

After septate and endometriosis surgery chances for conception increases ,even after six months wait result was not favorable.

IUI should be done at least for 3-6 months before going for IVF.

You should continue IUI for another 3-4 cycles before going for IVF.

If you need early result and finance is no problem,than you can go straight for IVF.

‘Hope I have answered your query, I will be available to answer your follow up queries.
