摘要
OBJECTIVES: The goal of this study was to determine the relationship between the number of mature ovarian follicles and the ( multiple) live birth rate after controlled ovarian hyperstimulation and intrauterine insemination. STUDY DESIGN: A total of 2463 intrauterine insemination cycles performed during a natural cycle ( n = 118), or after controlled ovarian hyperstimulation with either clomiphene citrate ( n = 663) or with gonadotrophins ( n = 1682) were reviewed to assess the impact of the type of stimulation and the number of follicles 14 mm or larger on the ( multiple) live birth rate per cycle. RESULTS: The live birth rate after intrauterine insemination was significantly higher (P=.02) after stimulation with gonadotrophins (13%) than after clomiphene cirate (8%) if only 1 follicle 14 mm or larger was present. If 2 or more follicles were present, there was no statistically significant difference between both stimulation methods. CONCLUSION: Treatment of intrauterine insemination with gonadotrophin is effective with an acceptable ( multiple) live birth rate when 1 or 2 follicles 14 mm or larger are present.
