Background: Ovulatory dysfunction is a common cause of infertility and polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) the main reason this dysfunction. PCOS most endocrinopathy in women childbearing age. A combination ovarian stimulation or superovulation with intrauterine insemination (IUI) remains an important option available to specialist widely used treatment modality for broad range indications. Object...

OBJECTIVE To determine the efficacy and cost of a simplified superovulation regimen compared with traditional control ovarian hyperstimulation with gonadotropins (HMG). STUDY DESIGN This was a retrospective study in a university referral center with 99 infertile couples undergoing 225 treatment cycles. The outcome was compared to outcomes of previously published studies. The simplified supero...

Background: Vitamin D, a steroid hormone, has critical roles in human health. The available data thus identify vitamin D as an important substance in processes involved in reproductive success and thereby suggest pathophysiological mechanisms for reproductive compromise in the setting of vitamin D deficiency. Realizing the prevalence of vitamin D insufficiency in our country, we hypothesized th...

OBJECTIVE To determine whether characteristics of sperm motility obtained by computer-assisted sperm analysis (CASA) could predict pregnancy after intrauterine insemination (IUI) in couples with unexplained infertility. METHODS Three hundred eighty-three cycles of intrauterine insemination with superovulation were retrospectively analyzed. Semen analysis was performed with CASA before and aft...
