Intrauterine insemination (IUI) as a type of artificial insemination involves the placement of sperm directly into the uterus at the time of ovulation, either in a natural menstrual cycle or following ovarian stimulation. The process allows the concentration of sperm in a small volume of culture media and then the concentrated sperm is placed into the uterus through a transcervical catheter. IU...

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 le...

In mammals, the intrauterine condition has an important role in the development of fetal physiological systems in later life. Suboptimal maternal environment can alter the regulatory pathways that determine the normal development of the fetus in utero, which in post-natal life may render the individual more susceptible to cardiovascular or metabolic adult-life diseases. Changes in the intrauter...

The outcome of early small-for-gestational age and/or intrauterine growth-restricted fetuses is reviewed. In these fetuses the outcome appears to be considerably poorer than that of appropriately grown fetuses and this seems mainly to be caused by intrauterine malnutrition rather than by hypoxemia. Active management of intrauterine growth restriction at the limits of viability may not be commen...

Fetal growth disturbances include fetuses at risk for intrauterine growth restriction. These fetuses may have an estimated fetal weight at less than the 10% or demonstrate a plateau of fetal growth with an estimated fetal growth greater than the 10%. Uteroplacental insufficiency may play a major role in the etiology of intrauterine growth restriction. Fetuses at risk for intrauterine fetal grow...

OBJECTIVE To identify predictors and to estimate their prognostic accuracy for regression and relapse of endometrial hyperplasia treated with levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system or oral progestogens. METHODS This was a cohort study of women treated with levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system or oral progestogens for complex hyperplasia or atypical complex hyperplasia for women ...
