Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonists are increasingly used in ovarian hyperstimulation protocols in in vitro fertilization (IVF) programs. From March 1992 to June 1993, 565 patients attending our Institute underwent superovulation in 1104 IVF program cycles. Of these cycles, 650 were stimulated with clomiphene citrate and gonadotropins (human menopausal gonadotropin/hMG), and 454 with the GnRH agonist buserelin and hMG in a group of patients who had earlier failed to respond or did not conceive after clomiphene citrate/hMG stimulation. The ovarian response was similar in both groups, however, with the use of buserelin more oocytes were recovered -4.9 +/- 3.2 and 3.5 +/- 2.3 oocytes, respectively. The clinical pregnancy rate per transfer in the group of patients superovulated with buserelin/hMG was twice that of the clomiphene citrate/hMG group (21.0% vs. 10.4%). The relatively high pregnancy rate with the buserelin/hMG regimen in the group of 'poor responders' may be connected with GnRH agonist-induced pharmacological hypophysectomy and the sequelae thereof: normalization of some endocrinopathies, absence of an endogenous luteinizing hormone (LH) surge and better endometrium receptivity, oocytes and embryo quality. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To study the outcome in poor responders to three ampules (225 IU) of hMG per day in subsequent IVF treatment cycles in which six ampules (450 IU)of hMG per day were administered. DESIGN: Retrospective chart review. SETTING: Academic tertiary center. PATIENTS: Between January 1988 and May 1995, 126 poor response patients had a first treatment cycle on three ampules and a second cycle on six ampules of hMG per day. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Numbers of follicles, oocytes, and embryos, and pregnancy rates. RESULTS: On six ampules, patients had significantly more follicles and oocytes. The number of embryos did not differ significantly. The pregnancy rate on six ampules were low (3.2% pregnancies per cycle started). CONCLUSION: Poor responders do not benefit from high-dose hMG stimulation; their reproduction outcome is poor. 相似文献

From 1985-1987, a total of 34 couples undergoing superovulation for a single in-vitro fertilization (IVF) cycle with clomiphene citrate and purified follicle stimulating hormone (FSH) or human menopausal gonadotrophin (HMG) were randomly allocated doses of intra-nasal buserelin to induce an endogenous gonadotrophin surge, prior to oocyte collection. The doses ranged from a single 25 microg dose to 100 microg every 4 h for 20 h. In three cycles the treatment was abandoned because of a poor ovarian response. In the remaining 31 cycles buserelin was given to induce the endogenous gonadotrophin surge, but there was evidence of premature luteinization in eight cycles and a premature gonadotrophin surge in four cycles. Although a single dose as low as 40 microg induced a surge and resulted in a pregnancy, a single dose of 50 microg proved the most effective minimal dose consistently to induce a gonadotrophin surge and oocyte maturation. Recent reports using gonadotrophin-releasing hormone (GnRH) analogues to induce a gonadotrophin surge has prompted publication of this previously unpublished data. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the pregnancy results of an ovarian hyperstimulation protocol for IVF-ET that combines GnRH agonist down-regulation, cessation of GnRH agonist therapy with the onset of menstruation, and high-dose gonadotropin administration in low responders. DESIGN: Prospective analysis. SETTING: Academic IVF program. PATIENT(S): One hundred eighty-two low responders undergoing 224 IVF-ET cycles. INTERVENTION(S): Down-regulation was obtained with the administration of leuprolide acetate beginning in the midluteal phase and ending with the onset of menses. Daily administration of 6 ampules of FSH alone or in combination with hMG was initiated on cycle day 3. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S): Stimulation characteristics and pregnancy rates (PRs) were compared between fresh cycles in which pure FSH alone was used and 35 cycles in which a combination of FSH and hMG was administered. RESULT(S): The clinical PR per transfer, the ongoing PR per transfer, and the implantation rate were 32%, 24%, and 9%, respectively. No differences were noted between cycles in which pure FSH alone was used in comparison with cycles in which a combination of FSH and hMG was administered. CONCLUSION(S): Short-term ovarian suppression begun in the luteal phase and discontinued with the onset of menses followed by high-dose stimulation with gonadotropins yields favorable pregnancy results in low responders. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To determine the relative efficacy of intrauterine insemination (IUI), direct intraperitoneal insemination, and intercourse in cycles stimulated with clomiphene citrate (CC) or human menopausal gonadotropins (hMG). DESIGN: A prospective randomized trial with a 2(3) factorial design with eight different treatment alternatives. Only one cycle per couple was performed. SETTINGS: The Departments of Obstetrics and Gynecology, Central Hospital, V?ster?s and Akademiska Hospital, Uppsala University, Uppsala, Sweden. PATIENTS: Of 157 randomized couples with unexplained infertility including 51 cases with minimal or mild endometriosis, 148 were selected for comparison. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE: Pregnancy rate (PR). RESULTS: Follicular stimulation with hMG gave a higher PR than with CC in the insemination cycles, 19% (10/52) and 4% (2/49), respectively, but the PRs in intercourse cycles were not significantly different for hMG and CC, 13% (3/24) and 17% (4/23), respectively. Insemination cycles and intercourse cycles had a similar overall PR, 12% (12/101) and 13% (7/47), respectively. Furthermore, IUI and direct intraperitoneal insemination did not differ in efficacy. CONCLUSION: Follicular stimulation with hMG is more effective than CC in insemination cycles, but insemination as such seems to have no beneficial effect on the PR in stimulated cycles for treatment of unexplained infertility. 相似文献

This study examines the relationship between the first cycle of in-vitro fertilization (IVF) and subsequent cycles. The results of all IVF cycles conducted at The Hammersmith Hospital or The Royal Masonic Hospital between 1988 and 1995 were studied including those cycles where egg recovery was abandoned due to poor ovarian response. All patients underwent a standardized treatment protocol. Of those women who achieved a clinical pregnancy during their first IVF attempt, 33% achieved a pregnancy during their second cycle, statistically significantly different from the 24% of patients conceiving during a second cycle who had failed to conceive during their first. 36% of those who achieved a biochemical pregnancy in their first cycle became pregnant in their second. Age was an important factor in the success of IVF treatment, with pregnancy rates of 48% in the 20-25 year age group falling to 8% in those aged > or =41 years. Cumulative pregnancy rates were 26% after one cycle, increasing to 43% after two cycles and reached 80% after seven cycles. A previous pregnancy significantly improved a couple's probability of conception in a later IVF cycle. Overall pregnancy rates per cycle were constant for the first three attempts. Cumulative pregnancy rates continued to rise to 72% after six cycles. Thus the more cycles a couple undergo (up to six) the greater their chance of a pregnancy. 相似文献

Purified urinary follicle-stimulating hormone (uFSH-HP; Metrodin HP, Serono Ltd.) was compared with a combination of pure FSH and human menopausal gonadotrophin (hMG; Pergonal, Serono Ltd.) in patients undergoing standard in vitro fertilization (IVF) or intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI). In standard IVF, pure FSH gave a significantly higher pregnancy rate per started cycle than did the combination with hMG (35 vs. 18%, p < 0.05). No differences between standard IVF and ICSI were seen which could be associated with hormonal stimulation in an open non-randomized series of patients. In 11 ICSI cycles, the use of recombinant FSH (Gonal F, Serono Ltd.) resulted in 4 ongoing pregnancies. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To compare the endocrine responses of patients who first received hMG plus FSH, then were treated in a subsequent cycle with FSH alone. DESIGN: Retrospective study. SETTING: An academic research environment. PATIENT(S): Ninety-six women with pituitary down-regulation who underwent two sequential IVF treatments, the first with combined hMG and FSH and the second with FSH alone. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S): Duration of stimulation, serum estradiol level on the day of hCG administration, amount of gonadotropin used, number of oocytes retrieved, number of oocytes fertilized, and selected preembryo morphologic features. RESULT(S): No difference in the mean duration of stimulation was observed between the treatment cycles among patients who received hMG and FSH (11.9 days) followed by FSH alone (11.7 days). The mean number of oocytes retrieved, the mean number of oocytes fertilized, the percentage of preembryo fragmentation, and the preembryo cell number at transfer did not differ significantly between the stimulation protocols. The cumulative amount of gonadotropin used during stimulation was slightly greater in the cycles stimulated with FSH alone, but this difference was not significant (29.4 ampules of hMG plus FSH versus 31.8 ampules of FSH alone). Serum estradiol levels measured on the day of hCG administration during stimulation with hMG and FSH (1,382 pg/mL) were higher than those measured during stimulation with FSH alone (1,149 pg/mL). CONCLUSION(S): Follicular response and preembryo quality were not significantly different when patients were treated first with hMG and FSH and then with FSH alone in a subsequent cycle. Similarities in ovarian response and preembryo characteristics, as well as differences in estradiol patterns seen in each stimulation setting, should be anticipated when patients receive these protocols. 相似文献

A total of 508 clomiphene citrate cycles with intra-uterine insemination (IUI) performed in 233 consecutive patients were studied. In 247 cycles insemination was performed 36-38 h after human chorionic gonadotrophin (HCG)-triggered ovulation; in the remaining 261 cycles IUI was performed 18-20 h after urinary luteinizing hormone (LH) kit detection of a spontaneous LH surge. Corpus luteum function, as determined by luteal phase length and mid-luteal progesterone concentrations, together with pregnancy rates were analysed. There was no difference in luteal phase parameters between spontaneous and HCG-triggered cycles when adjusting for patient age. Furthermore, the pregnancy rates did not differ between the HCG and LH kit groups, even after adjusting for patient age and number of motile spermatozoa inseminated. Additionally, the large numbers of cycles analysed provided sufficient power to detect increases in clinical pregnancy rates in spontaneous ovulatory cycles and HCG-induced ovulation of 10.1 and 2.4% respectively, using the customary significance level (alpha-type error) of 0.05. These findings indicate that pregnancy rates and corpus luteum function in carefully monitored clomiphene citrate/IUI cycles do not differ between HCG-triggered and spontaneous ovulatory cycles. 相似文献

This study is a long-term evaluation of the total pregnancy potential of cohorts of fresh and cryopreserved sibling embryos from in-vitro fertilization (IVF) cycles stimulated with either the gonadotrophin-releasing hormone analogue buserelin (BUS) (long protocol) or clomiphene citrate (CC) both in combination with human menopausal gonadotrophin (HMG). Therefore a retrospective analysis was performed on patients who entered the IVF programme between January 1986 and July 1987 and who had triple embryo transfer in the collection cycle. Significantly more fertilized oocytes developed to good-quality embryos in the CC-HMG group (86.1%) than in the BUS-HMG group (80.8%). Transfer of the three morphologically best-looking embryos was performed in day 2 post-insemination in 106 CC-HMG and 80 BUS-HMG cycles. Supernumerary embryos were cultured for a further 24 h and multicellular embryos with up to 20% of fragments were frozen slowly with 1.5 M dimethylsulphoxide on day 3 post-insemination (162 embryos in CC-HMG cycles, 102 embryos in BUS- HMG cycles). Outcome was measured by embryo survival rate, embryo implantation rate and delivery rate in fresh and frozen embryo transfers. Delivery rates were 31.3 and 21.7% per fresh embryo transfer in BUS-HMG and CC- HMG cycles respectively. Fresh embryo implantation rates were significantly higher in collection cycles stimulated with BUS-HMG (17.9%) than in cycles stimulated with CC-HMG (11.3%). Implantation rates were significantly enhanced in embryos transferred in excess of one in cycles leading to pregnancy, perhaps indicative of higher embryo quality in BUS-HMG cycles. Almost all cryopreserved embryos have by now been thawed, so the contribution of frozen embryos to overall pregnancy rates can be evaluated. Overall morphological survival rates of frozen-thawed embryos have by now been thawed, so the contribution of frozen embryos to overall pregnancy rates can be evaluated Overall morphological survival rates of frozen-thawed embryos were similar for 140 embryos from CC-HMG cycles (50%) and 100 embryos from BUS-HMG cycles (46%). The percentage of fully intact embryos was, however, significantly lower in the BUS-HMG group (19%) than in the CC-HMG group (39.5%). Delivery rates were significantly lower following 30 transfers of frozen-thawed embryos from BUS-HMG-stimulated cycles (3.3%) than following 42 transfers of frozen-thawed embryos from CC-HMG cycles (19.1%). Embryo implantation rates were lower for frozen-thawed embryos from BUS-HMG cycles (2.3%) than from CC-HMG cycles (12.7%). Here we demonstrate that ovarian stimulation with the long protocol BUS-HMG instead of the CC-HMG protocol led to higher embryo implantation rates in collection cycles but to lower intact embryo survival rates and to lower embryo implantation rates for frozen sibling embryos. Despite the lower implantation rates with frozen embryos originating from the BUS-HMG protocol, there was no significant difference between total delivery rate per transfer from cycles stimulated with CC-HMG (30.2%) compared with BUS-HMG (33.8%). 相似文献

PURPOSE: The use of highly purified follicle-stimulating hormone (Metrodin-HP) was compared with that of a preparation containing follicle-stimulating hormone and luteinizing hormone (Pergonal) for production of superovulation in an IVF program. METHODS: We used the Oxford Fertility Unit database to identify patients undergoing their first cycle of IVF, using either Metrodin-HP or Pergonal. Patients were treated with a standardized drug protocol and were stratified by age and cause of infertility. Ovarian stimulation with either Metrodin-HP (Serono Laboratories) or human menopausal gonadotropin (hMG; Pergonal; Serono Laboratories) after pituitary desensitization commenced in the midluteal phase of the preceding cycle. Monitoring was performed by ultrasound and serum estradiol measurement prior to transvaginal oocyte recovery, followed by IVF and transfer of no more than three embryos. RESULTS: For Metrodin-HP versus Pergonal, the rates of egg retrieval (98 vs 94%), fertilization (89 vs 92%), clinical pregnancy (32.9 vs 23.4%), miscarriage (4.1 vs 4.5%), live birth (26 vs 18.5%), and ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (5.5% vs 5.9%) were similar in both groups. The apparent increase in clinical pregnancy and live birth with Metrodin-HP did not reach statistical significance. The dosages of gonadotropins used were comparable. Estradiol levels measured on day 8 of stimulation were significantly lower in the Metrodin-HP group than in the Pergonal group, but the difference did not reach statistical significance on the day of hCG administration. Significantly more follicles (greater than 12 mm) were obtained in the Metrodin-HP group, but the numbers of eggs recovered and fertilized were similar in the two groups. CONCLUSIONS: These findings demonstrate that highly purified FSH (Metrodin-HP) is as effective and successful as hMG (Pergonal) for ovarian stimulation in a standard IVF regimen. Exogenous luteinizing hormone (LH) is not required for satisfactory ovarian stimulation in IVF. Measurement of estradiol may be less helpful in the monitoring of Metrodin-HP cycles, but the level reached on the day of hCG administration can still be used to predict, and hence avoid, ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the suitability and efficiency of human follicular fluid (HFF) as a protein supplement in human IVF programs. DESIGN: Comparative study of the effects of HFF and other protein supplements on the in vitro development of mouse oocytes and on the pregnancy rate in human IVF programs. SETTING: In Vitro Fertilization Center, Hanna Women's Clinic, Seoul, Korea. PATIENT(S): Three hundred twenty-seven patients (388 cycles) who were down-regulated with GnRH agonist and stimulated with hMG. INTERVENTION(S): The suitability was evaluated with the results of animal studies and the efficiency of HFF was investigated with the results of human IVF programs. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S): Meiotic maturation of mouse oocytes, development of mouse embryos, morphological grades of human embryos, pregnancy rate in human IVF programs, and electrophoresis. RESULT(S): Human follicular fluid significantly stimulated meiotic resumption in mouse oocytes, even in the presence of meiotic inhibitors, and enhanced the developmental potential of mouse embryos in vitro. Compared with human fetal cord serum, human follicular fluid also improved the morphological grade of human embryos by reducing cytoplasmic fragmentation. In conventional IVF cycles of human IVF programs, use of HFF significantly increased the clinical PR (109/234 cycles, 46.5%; P < .05), compared with use of human fetal cord serum (14/52 cycles, 26.9%). However, in intracytoplasmic sperm injection cycles, there was no difference in PRs between use of HFF (38/85 cycles, 44.7%) and use of human fetal cord serum (7/17 cycles, 41.1%). When the protein compositions of human fetal cord serum and HFF were investigated by electrophoresis, a protein of 21 kD was detected specifically in HFF. CONCLUSION(S): Human follicular fluid is suitable for use as a protein supplement and is effective in increasing the pregnancy rate in human IVF programs. 相似文献

Patients suffering from normogonadotrophic anovulation and infertility are initially treated with clomiphene citrate. Those who do not respond to clomiphene citrate usually receive gonadotrophin treatment which is labour-intensive, expensive, and associated with an increased risk of multiple pregnancies and ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome. We treated 22 patients with clomiphene resistant normogonadotrophic anovulation with naltrexone (an opioid receptor blocker) alone or naltrexone in combination with an antioestrogen. In 19 patients ovulation and resumption of a regular menstrual cycle was achieved and in 12 out of 19 a singleton pregnancy was observed. In conclusion, ovulation can be induced successfully using naltrexone alone or naltrexone in combination with an anti-oestrogen in clomiphene citrate resistant anovulatory patients. Compared to gonadotrophin induction of ovulation, this method is safe, simple and inexpensive. 相似文献

PURPOSE: The administration of two GnRH analogues (buserelin and leuprolide acetate) in long and short protocols was evaluated prospectively. In the long protocol, the analogues were given from day 1 of the cycle for at least 14 days and then hMG administration was started, while in the short protocol the analogues were initiated from cycle day 1, adding hMG from day 3. The patients were divided into four groups according to the protocol used: Group I, buserelin-long; Group II, buserelin-short; Group III, leuprolide-long; and Group IV, leuprolide-short. Serum E2 levels on the day of hCG injection and the number of follicles observed, oocytes retrieved, and embryos obtained, as well as implantation rates, were significantly higher (P < 0.001) in the long protocols than in the short ones. RESULTS: Pregnancy rates were similar in all groups, although a trend for better results was observed in buserelin-long compared to buserelin-short. There were no differences in the results achieved with buserelin or leuprolide. CONCLUSION: The administration of GnRH analogues (buserelin and leuprolide acetate) in long protocols induced a more intense ovarian response and was associated with significantly higher implantation rates and also a trend for higher pregnancy rates, although this difference was not statistically significant. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate effectiveness and safety of a regimen of extended clomiphene citrate (CC) and prednisone for patients who fail treatment with CC alone. DESIGN: Retrospective observational analysis. SETTING: University-based tertiary infertility center. PATIENT(S): Twenty-four anovulatory patients who failed to ovulate after CC 150 mg administered for 5 days. INTERVENTION(S): Treatment consisted of CC given on cycle days 3 through 9 (extended) at a starting dose of 100 to 150 mg/d. Additionally, patients were given prednisone 5 mg orally each night throughout the cycle. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S): Ovulation was confirmed by luteal serum P. Pregnancy was confirmed by rising hCG levels and transvaginal ultrasound. RESULT(S): A total of 60 cycles were available for review. Forty-four of these cycles were ovulatory (73%) and 11 patients (46%) conceived on this therapy. Logistic (two-parameter) pregnancy occurrence over time (cycles) revealed a maximum pregnancy probability of 0.66 and a cycle fecundity of 0.36. No complications of therapy were noted. CONCLUSION(S): Clomiphene citrate-resistant anovulatory patients have high rates of ovulation and pregnancy after treatment with extended CC and prednisone. This therapy offers a potential reduction in cost and risk and should be considered in this group of patients before gonadotropin stimulation or surgery. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: The objective of this study was to prospectively evaluate the sperm migration test (SMT) as a discriminator in couples undergoing intrauterine insemination (IUI). PATIENTS AND METHODS: 261 couples underwent 797 IUI treatment cycles involving gonadotropin stimulation in the three year period. All had a diagnosis of unexplained infertility. All male partners underwent a repeat standard seminal analysis and SMT prior to the female partner undergoing controlled ovarian stimulation. RESULTS: Despite apparently normal seminal analyses before referral, in 22 samples the sperm concentration, motility or morphology were abnormal (WHO criteria). Of these, 20 couples underwent 109 cycles and achieved 2 pregnancies giving a pregnancy rate of 1.8% per cycle and a cumulative pregnancy rate of 10% per couple. From the remaining couples with normal seminal analyses, 71 had an SMT <5 million/mL and 168 had an SMT >5 million/mL. The suboptimal SMT group underwent 276 cycles (3.89 cycles per couple) and achieved 18 pregnancies giving a pregnancy rate of 6.5% per cycle and a cumulative pregnancy rate of 25.4%. The normal SMT group underwent 412 cycles (2.45 cycles per couple) and achieved 60 pregnancies giving a pregnancy rate of 14.6% per cycle and a cumulative pregnancy rate of 35.7%. CONCLUSIONS: We confirm that abnormal seminal analysis leads to poor pregnancy rates with IUI. However, an SMT <5 million/mL despite normal seminal analysis (WHO criteria) also leads to significantly worse pregnancy rates. We would recommend that prior to IUI, couples are screened using the SMT. 相似文献

Identification and treatment of low responders to ovulation induction is one of the most frustrating challenges in reproductive medicine. Because complex ovulation induction is required so frequently and is so expensive, efficient diagnosis of hyporesponders is critical. At present, the best techniques of evaluating ovarian reserve are basal follicle-stimulating hormone/Estradiol levels early in the proliferative phase and the clomiphene citrate challenge test. When poor responders are identified, strong consideration should be given to adjunctive approaches such as gonadotropin-releasing hormone analog and microdose flare or possibly, embryo hatching in those women undergoing in vitro fertilization. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To compare the cumulative probability of pregnancy after multiple IVF cycles by age and cause of infertility. DESIGN: A prospective study was done in which patients were followed from the time they registered for their first IVF cycle until they achieved a clinical pregnancy, withdrew from treatment, or study was terminated. PATIENTS, SETTING, TREATMENTS: Infertile women undergoing IVF-ET at the Cooper Institute for In Vitro Fertilization were enrolled in this study if the luteal phase leuprolide acetate (LA) and hMG controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH) regimen was used. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Clinical pregnancy, as determined by a positive beta-hCG level and ultrasonographic confirmation of a gestational sac, and delivery rates based on number of women with live births were compared by infertility factor and age. RESULTS: The 3-month cumulative probability of pregnancy based on life table analysis was 33% in women with tubal factor who were < or = 35 years of age, 25% in women with tubal factor who were > 35 years of age, 30% for women with multiple factors who were < or = 35 years of age, and 14% for women with multiple factors who were > 35 years of age. The rate for the older women with multiple factors was significantly lower than that for the other groups. The delivery rates were lower for the women with multiple factors than for women under 35 with tubal factor only. CONCLUSIONS: There is a significant effect of age and infertility factor on pregnancy and delivery rates. Physicians should consider these factors in evaluating their patients' prospects for success in IVF-ET. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: to evaluate the results of superovulation, protocol hMG-hCG, associated to IUI for treatment of infertility. PATIENTS AND METHODS: this prospective study, includes 77 couples who underwent 204 consecutive cycles of homologous IUI. The same protocol was applied for all the couples. hMG was administrated from cycle days 2 to 5 (3 then 2 ampuls per day). Patients were monitored daily, by evaluation of serum oestradiol. Insemination was done 36 to 38 hours after hCG injection. RESULTS: 2.6 cycles were done per couple. We observed 16.2% pregnancy per cycle. The best results were obtained in female indications, in the first cycle, with more than 500,000 spermatozoide and with a level of E2 between 500 and 1500 pg/ml. Multiple pregnancy was observed in 18.2%. CONCLUSION: controlled ovarian stimulation should be associated to all IUI. 相似文献

During the period January 1, 1991 through December 31, 1995, 258 patients, in whom motile sperm counts for insemination (postwash, processed) were 10.0 million motile sperm or less were seen in the andrology unit for sperm washing and intrauterine insemination (IUI). No significant female factors were noted on history; all female partners had patent Fallopian tubes and were ovulatory spontaneously or were treated by the referring gynecologist with clomiphene citrate, human menopausal gonadotropin (hMG), or follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) ovulation induction in both anovulatory or ovulatory women. Of the total of 258 patients, 15 achieved a pregnancy in 284 cycles of IUI in which the inseminating motile-count was < 1.0 million motile sperm, resulting in a monthly fecundity (f) of 5.3%. The mean (+/-SD) motile count for IUI in this group was 0.61 (+/-0.29) million sperm, with a range of 0.19-0.95 million motile sperm. The initial motile count was 2.97 (3.2) million sperm, with a range of 0.2-12.81 million sperm. With inseminating motile counts of 1.0-10.0 million motile sperm, there were 83 pregnancies after 467 cycles of IUI, resulting in a monthly f of 17.8%. The mean (+/-SD) motile count for IUI in this group was 4.9 (+/-2.7) million motile sperm with a range of 1.0-9.9 million motile sperm. The initial sperm count in this group was 10.9 million (+/-7.1), with a range of 1.1-23.7 million motile sperm. These data suggest that acceptable pregnancy rates can be achieved with IUI, even in severely oligozoospermic specimens. Intrauterine insemination is less invasive and less costly than other assisted reproductive techniques. These data are supportive of IUI prior to attempting other more invasive and potentially costly reproductive technologies. 相似文献
