ABSTRACT
Background: The results of intrauterine insemination (IUI) variables are already indications that this procedure is inconsistent with pregnancy rates ranging from 5 to 70%. Factors influencing the success of the procedure are: precise indications, quality of ovum, and trained sperm samples.
Objective: To describe pregnancy rate achieved in patients submitted to intrauterine insemination.
Patients and method: A retrospective study in patients with infertility who had intrauterine insemination at a high specialty hospital was done; there were studied variables such as age, infertility type, BMI, infertility factors altered, indicating insemination, scheme ovulation induction. We used measures of central tendency on average, median, mode and scatter as standard deviation.
Results: There were studied 121 patients with average age of 32.93 years, 77.7% with primary infertility, 69.4% with overweight or obese. The main factor was altered cervical spermatic factor (12.4%), 43% with 2 or more factors altered. It was achieved a pregnancy rate of 8.3% (n = 10). 40% of patients in who pregnancy was achieved was submitted to three inseminations. 70% of patients received FSHr, 20% clomiphene citrate and 10% a combination both.
Conclusions: Pregnancy rate achieved with homologous intrauterine insemination was according to that reported in bibliography. The highest pregnancy rate was achieved in patients with more than two altered factors and in patiens who received ovary stimulation with FSHr.
