Abstract | ||||
Objective: To compare pregnancy rates per treatment cycle of controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH) among patients receiving COH with single IUI with patients receiving two IUIs and those who practice regular sexual intercourse Materials & Methods: All of the 300 studied women were diagnosed as idiopathic infertility and their husbands were having normal seminogram. They were divided into 3 subgroups each 100 women:G1; received induction of ovulation and advised to have a normal and frequent regular intercourse during the period around ovulation. G2; received induction of ovulation and subjected to IUI after 30 hours of HCG injection which is given in a dose of 10,000 iu intramuscular based on ultrasonic monitoring of folliculogenesis. G3; received induction of ovulation and subjected to intrauterine insemination after 30 hours and 42 hours of HCG injection. Results: A total of 300 patients were randomized among groups1, 2, 3 (100 women per group) cycles). Data analysis demonstrated no significant differences among 3 groups with respect to age, Body mass index, Mean ovarian volume ,LH ,FSH, PRL ,E2 or Testosterone levels (table -1). However, Our result showed a pregnancy rate 2% in the first group, 10% in the second group and 11% in the 3rd group with statistically significant difference between single and also double IUI and normal frequent intercourse without insemination but no statistical difference between single and double IUI as regards pregnancy rate (table -2) Conclusion: We concluded that double insemination not beneficial more than single insemination in spite of increasing the number of motile sperm. | ||||
