Summary

To prospectively determine the most appropriate inseminated volume in donor IUI cycles. It is hypothesized that if the procedure is performed with 0.5 mL instead of 0.2, higher clinical pregnancy rates will be achieved by promoting higher sperm densities in the fallopian tubes at the time of ovulation by decreasing the amount of sperm cells lost during preparation and handling.

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Intrauterine insemination

IUI will be performed with a Wallace® insemination 2 Catheter (Cooper Surgical, Trumbull, CT, USA) depositing 0.2 or 0.5 ml of the sperm sample at the uterine fundus. All IUIs will be performed between 12 p.m. and 4 p.m. After the procedure, 10 min of bed rest will be prescribed. Inseminations will be performed every day of the week, including weekends.
