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...

SYNOPSIS: Performing intrauterine ...

Intrauterine inseminations (IUI) are easier to perform, less invasive and less expensive than other methods of assisted reproduction. The rationale for the use of artificial insemination is to increase gamete density at the site of fertilisation. It is generally accepted that IUI with homologous semen should be preferred as a first choice treatment above more invasive and expensive techniques o...

Abstract Background Intrauterine Insemination (IUI) outcome prediction is a challenging issue which the assisted reproductive technology (ART) practitioners are dealing with. Predicting success or failure of IUI based on couples' features can assist physicians to make appropriate decision for suggesting couples not and/or continuing treatment them. Many previous studies have been focused predic...
