In vitro fertilisation for unexplained subfertility.
BACKGROUND One-third of subfertile couples have no identifiable cause for their inability to conceive. In vitro fertilisation (IVF) is a widely accepted treatment for this condition; however, this treatment is invasive and expensive and is associated with risks. OBJECTIVES To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of IVF compared with expectant management, unstimulated intrauterine inseminatio...

The relevant evidence should come from randomized controlled trials, but the results need to be recalculate...

Hence, the time was thought right to scrutinise the results and complications of ovulation induction for anovulatory infertile couples. In addition to examining the outcome of conventional treatment with gonadotrophins and clomiphene citrat...
