Health-care delivery according to clinical practice guidelines is thought to be critical in achieving optimal outcomes. This study aimed to assess the extent to which practice performance in intrauterine insemination (IUI) care is consistent with guideline recommendations and to evaluate the association between guideline adherence and outcome of IUI care. In a retrospective cohort study, 1100 i...

background: to compare a flexible, multi-dose gnrh antagonist protocol with a long gnrh .agonist protocol in poor respo materials and methods: a randomized clinical trial of 70 poor responder patients (35 patients in gnrh antagonist protocol and 35 patients in long gnrh agonist protocol) was performed at royan institute, tehran, iran. both groups were given a fixed dose of human menopausal gona...

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...

BACKGROUND In natural cycles, women conceive when intercourse takes place during a six-day period ending on the day of ovulation. The current practice in intrauterine insemination (IUI) cycles is to perform the IUI 24-36 hours after the hCG administration, when the ovulation is already imminent. In this study hCG was administered after the IUI, which more closely resembles the fertilisation pro...

objective: to evaluate the impact of luteal phase support with vaginal progesterone on pregnancy rates in the intrauterine insemination (iui) cycles, stimulated with clomiphene citrate and human menopausal gonadotropin (hmg), in sub fertile couples. materials and methods: this prospective, randomized, double blind study was performed in a tertiary infertility center from march 2011 to january 2...

Background: Although the number of follicles at intrauterine insemination (IUI) is associated with pregnancy rates and multiple rates. Multiple are low in older women. Therefore, this study was undertaken to determine clinical rate IUI women 38–43 years age based on stimulated mature follicles. Methods: A retrospective cohort performed including all first third cycles conducted after 38 a singl...

Objective. There is an asymmetric allocation of technology and other resources for infertility services. Intrauterine insemination (IUI) is a process of placing washed spermatozoa transcervically into the uterine cavity for treatment of infertility. This is a review of literature for the potential use of IUI as a basic infertility treatment in technology-limited settings. Study design. Review o...

BACKGROUND We performed this study to investigate and compare the effects of Letrozole and gonadotrophins versus Clomiphene Citrate and gonadotrophins in women undergoing superovulation for Intrauterine Insemination (IUI). METHODS We performed this prospective cohort study at Australian Concept and Fertility centre, Karachi Pakistan. Women younger than 40 years of age with patent fallopian tu...

BACKGROUND While intrauterine insemination (IUI), a simple, inexpensive and non-invasive technique, is the most used assisted reproduction technology (ART) worldwide, the risk of major birth defects following IUI is paradoxically not well documented. METHODS Retrospective cohort study performed in Burgundy, France, over a 9-year period which consisted of the cross analysis of two prospective ...

Fallopian tube sperm perfusion (FSP) is in short comprised of mild ovarian stimulation with the aim of maturing 2 follicles, ovulation induction and insemination using a large volume (4 ml) of inseminate. Perfusion studies demonstrated that with this large volume, the inseminate will fill the uterine cavity, flow through the fallopian tubes and some of it will end up in the peritoneal space. Th...
