Abstract
Purpose: The aim of this studywas to investigate the effects of these factors on pregnancy rates in infertile patients following ovulation induction and intrauterine insemination. Materials and Methods: The study was performed retrospectively that investigated examination reports and laboratory results of 201 infertile patients with unexplained infertility, male factor and anovulation. Women were subdivided into two groups according to the ovary-stimulating agent used as gonadotropin or clomiphene citrate. A semen sample was obtained from all men participants. Results: There were 239 cycles of unexplained infertility (77.9%), 39 cycles in ovulatory dysfunction (12.7%) and 29 cycles in male factor (9.4%) groups. The clinical pregnancy rates per cycle according to infertility type were found as 18.4% (n:44) for unexplained infertility, 17.9% (n:7) for ovulatory dysfunction and 13.8% (n:4) for malefactor. In regression analyses, follicle (diameter>10mm) count on the day of hCG administration and inseminated total motile sperm count (ITMSC) were independently affected pregnancy rate. ITMSC area value under the curve (0.63) was significantly different from 0.5. Conclusion: Follicle count on the day of hCG administration and ITMSC independently affect the pregnancy rate. Additionally, the intrauterine insemination method should be attempted in appropriate cases that have an acceptable successful pregnancy rate.
