OBJECTIVE To determine whether cervical mucus aspiration before intrauterine insemination (IUI) has any effect on clinical pregnancy rates. METHOD The outcomes of 186 IUI cycles in 95 consecutive patients in whom mucus was aspired prior to IUI were compared retrospectively with those of 1057 IUI cycles in 505 women. RESULTS The pregnancy rate was 15.1% (28 pregnancies for 186 cycles) in the...

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 The high iatrogenic multiple pregnancy rate associated with intrauterine insemination (IUI) in hyperstimulated cycles is becoming less acceptable. Therefore we investigated data from an earlier prospective trial with regard to the specific question of whether the application of mild hyperstimulation in IUI cycles could be an alternative strategy for obtaining acceptable pregnancy rat...

Traditionally, ovulation induction (OI) with intrauterine insemination (IUI) has been a strategy used to maximize pregnancy outcomes in patients attempting pregnancy. A common pattern of performing OI/IUI historically has been to begin OI using oral medications, such as Clomiphene Citrate or Letrozole, and then escalating medical management to include injectable Gonadotropins such as follicle s...

A short review stating levels of evidence is given regarding the indications for IUI and the cost-effectiveness of (stimulated) IUI compared with that of IVF. It is concluded that IUI in natural cycles should be applied in couples with cervical hostility, might be applied in couples with a moderate semen factor and should not be applied in couples with unexplained subfertility. Intrauterine ins...

BACKGROUND This study was aimed to assess the effect of endometrial movements on pregnancy achievement in intrauterine insemination (IUI) cycles. MATERIALS AND METHODS The population of this observational study was composed of unexplained infertility couples undergoing first-time IUI with clomiphene citrate between September 2010 and October 2011. Not only endometrial movements, but also thic...

STUDY QUESTION Does intrauterine insemination in the natural cycle lead to better pregnancy rates than intracervical insemination (ICI) in the natural cycle in women undergoing artificial insemination with cryopreserved donor sperm. SUMMARY ANSWER In a large cohort of women undergoing artificial insemination with cryopreserved donor sperm, there was no substantial beneficial effect of IUI in ...
