Abstract:
Human seminal plasma allergy in women is uncommon, but causes a variety of serious reactions, including urticaria, dyspnea and vomiting, in those that are affected. Semen barriers, such as condoms, are the most widely advocated method for avoiding these reactions. However, this is not acceptable to couples who wish to have children. We present a case of a woman with human seminal plasma allergy who became pregnant after the eighth cycle of artificial insemination using washed sperm from her spouse. (Reprod Med Biol 2008; 7: 119-122).
