OBJECTIVE To compare fecundity rates following intrauterine insemination (IUI) with donor sperm frozen conventionally versus an IUI-ready preparation. DESIGN Both retrospective results and a prospective, randomized study where recipients were assigned to one of two sperm cryopreservation methods in each cycle of intrauterine insemination are reported. SETTING University-based infertility pr...

The aim of this work was to evaluate the efficiency of the intrauterine insemination (IUI) in swine, considering the conception rate, farrowing rate, litter size (alive born pigs). For the IUI, the females had been insemination at 24 and 48 hours after the estrus detection, and the inseminating doses of 500 million, 1 billion, 1.5 billion and 2 billion spermatozoa in 20 mL extender had been use...

Background: To ascertain whether using ultrasound guidance during intrauterine insemination (IUI) could increase pregnancy rates. Materials and Methods: The population under study consisted of 73 consecutive couples subjected to IUI in our Human Reproduction Unit, between September and December 2006, with a total of 231 IUI cycles performed. The patients were randomized using a computer-generat...

In a prospective randomized trial comparing efficacy of double over single intrauterine insemination (IUI), 160 couples with unexplained infertility underwent controlled ovarian hyperstimulation and IUI. The pregnancy rates were similar and statistically not different between groups, suggesting that double IUI added no advantage over single IUI.

OBJECTIVE To assess the effect of sperm parameters on pregnancy rate following Intrauterine Insemination (IUI) in primary and secondary infertile patients. STUDY DESIGN An observational study. PLACE AND DURATION OF STUDY The Assisted Conception Unit, Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology, Services Institute of Medical Sciences, Lahore, Pakistan, from January 2004 to January 2006. PATIE...

BACKGROUND Intrauterine insemination (IUI) is the first therapeutic step in assisted reproductive techniques and many factors, including male and female infertility and technique-dependent factors, have been reported to influence pregnancy rates after IUI. METHODS We carried out this retrospective study on 1201 couples undergoing 3012 intrauterine insemination cycles during 2002 to 2009. Preg...

Objective: To compare pregnancy rates between lean, overweight, and obese women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) undergoing ovulation induction-intrauterine insemination (OI-IUI). Design: Retrospective cohort study Setting: Academic training program Patient(s): All women with PCOS undergoing OI-IUI from January 2000 to November 2013. Interventions: Ovulation induction-intrauterine insemina...

(ICI) is to reduce the effect of factors such as vaginal acidity and cervical mucus hostility and to benefit from the deposition of a bolus of prepared motile, morphologically normal sperm as close as ...

background: implantation is considered as the rate-limiting step in success of assisted reproduction techniques, and intrauterine insemination cycles. it might be affected by ovarian superovulation and endometrial local scratching. objective: this study aims to investigate the effect of local endometrial injury on the outcome of iui cycles. materials and methods: in this randomized clinical tri...

To assess whether high BMI of >30kg/m2 affects outcome Intrauterine Insemination method(IUI). We conducted a retrospective study 140 infertile couples. Out these 71 women had <30 (Group A) and 69 >30 B). All undergone (IUI) using the agonist/antagonist with stimulation by gonadotrophins protocol. Statistical anylasis was done Student t test for parametric data Chi-square...
