Abstract

Studies have demonstrated that patient interpretation of home urinary ovulation predictor kits (OPKs) not uncommonly results in false-positive tests (McGovern PG et al., Fertil Steril 2004 Nov;82(5):1273-7). Patients undergoing donor sperm intrauterine insemination (IUI-D) typically have one opportunity for exposure to sperm during a treatment cycle, making the timing of IUI-D critical. We therefore undertook a Quality Improvement project investigating whether patients undergoing IUI-D had different success rates when IUI-D was timed 24-32 hours after positive morning OPK or 24-32 hours after clinic administration of Human Chorionic Gonadotropin (HCG).
