Intrauterine Insemination

چکیده
Intrauterine insemination [4] (IUI), also known as artificial insemination [5], is one of the earliest and simplest assisted reproductive technologies (ART). With this technique, sperm [6] from either a partner or donor (such as from a sperm bank [7]) is inserted with a syringe into the woman?s vagina [8] during ovulation [9] to increase the probability that fertilization [10] will occur and lead to pregnancy [11]. This procedure is most effective for couples with male fertility problems, such as impotence, though it is also used to treat idiopathic (of unknown cause) infertility [12], vaginismus [13] (wherein the female involuntarily constricts her vagina [8]), and hostile female cervical mucus that rejects sperm [6]. In the 1940s and 1950s cryopreservation [14] facilitated the preservation of sperm [6] through freezing methods for later use, such as in IUI.

Pregnancy Outcome with Intrauterine Insemination in Patients with Unexplained Recurrent Abortion Whose Partners Have Abnormal Hypo-Osmotic Swelling Test
Background: Recurrent abortion is defined as three or more consecutive pregnancy losses. We aimed to determine the relationship between male sperm parameters and hypo-osmotic swelling score and recurrent abortion. We also studied whether washing of spermatozoa and intrauterine insemination in patients with recurrent miscarriage and low score hypo-osmotic swelling test in male partners could imp...

Background: Due to the seasonality reproduction of albino hamster (April to October in the Northern Hemisphere) and the need to produce blastocysts for research applications, producing and collecting blastocysts by natural mating in non-breeding season is complex in this species. In the present study in vivo blastocysts production and collection using super-ovulation and intrauterine inseminati...
