Results of artificial insemination at home by the partner with cryopreserved donor semen: a randomized study.

The use of cryopreserved semen offers the possibility of home insemination by the instructed partner. A comparative study was designed whereby participants were randomly allocated to use home or clinic insemination for six cycles. If no pregnancy had occurred after six cycles, the site of insemination was switched to the opposite location for a maximum of six further cycles. Fifty-three women with primary infertility fulfilling all entry criteria entered the study. In the first 6 cycles out of 29 home starters, 13 pregnancies were conceived, whereas in 24 clinic starters 11 pregnancies occurred, yielding no statistical difference in pregnancy rate. Of 138 couples who did not meet the criteria in the same period, 45 opted for home insemination, resulting in 20 home-inseminated pregnancies. Again, for comparable subgroups no statistical difference in pregnancy rate between home and clinic insemination was found.

Improved cryopreserved semen fecundability in an alternating fresh-frozen artificial insemination program.

This study with glycerol and increased number of motile sperm inseminated showed an increase in f to 10.4% for frozen semen and 27.4% for fresh semen. There is a significant (P less than 0.01) difference in pregnancy rate when greater than 100 million motile sperm are inseminated (31.3%) than when less than that number are inseminated (11.9%) in the first cycle when frozen semen is used.

Artificial insemination with fresh donor semen.

A total of 141 patients received donor insemination during a 21/2-year period. Pregnancy was achieved by 57 per cent of these patients. When patients who were inseminated for less than three cycles are excluded, the pregnancy rate is 77 per cent. The mean conception time was three treatment cycles. In 69 pregnancies, the occurrence of abortion was that of the general population, and an increased male-to-female ratio was observed in the 36 live-born infants. Questionnaires sent to all couples and returned by 81 per cent indicated that donor insemination was not emotionally harmful to their marriage. Heterologous insemination is a safe, effective therapeutic alternative to adoption for selected couples.
