ABSTRACT
Objective:
Intrauterine insemination (IUI) is an assisted conception technique that involves the deposition of a processed semen sample in the upper uterine cavity, overcoming natural barriers to sperm ascent in the female reproductive tract. Hence, we compared the results of doing intra-uterine insemination 36 and 42 hours after human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) hormone injection to achieve clinical and chemical pregnancy rates. Materials andmethods:
One hundred and sixty infertile women with unexplained infertility participated in this clinical trial. They were divided into two groups those who underwent IUI 36 hours after hCG injection (control group), and those who underwent IUI 42 hours after hCG injection (case group). Statistical analyses were done using IBM-SPSS 25.0. and Chi-square test were used for data analysis.Results:
The percentages of clinical and chemical pregnancies were significantly higher in the 42h group compared to the other group (P = 0.038 vs. P = 0.009, respectively). There was no significant difference regarding frequency of abortion, twin and ectopic pregnancies between the two groups (P > 0.05).Conclusion:
Doing IUI 42 hours after hCG injection can significantly increase chances of fertility compared to doing it 36 hours after hCG injection.
