Artificial insemination with donor semen achieved an 84.9% pregnancy rate for infertile couples, with outcomes comparable to the general population. Factors like age, socioeconomic status, and ovulatory disturbances significantly influenced success rates.

Area of Science:

  • Reproductive Medicine
  • Infertility Treatment
  • Human Assisted Reproduction

Background:

  • Azoospermia is a significant cause of male infertility.
  • Donor insemination is a key assisted reproductive technology (ART).
  • Understanding factors influencing donor insemination success is crucial.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To evaluate the efficacy of artificial insemination using fresh donor semen.
  • To identify factors affecting pregnancy rates in couples undergoing donor insemination.
  • To assess the safety profile of the procedure.

Main Methods:

  • Prospective study involving 440 couples undergoing artificial insemination with fresh donor semen.
  • Primary indication for treatment was azoospermia.

  • Data collected on pregnancy outcomes, including ectopic pregnancies, perinatal deaths, and spontaneous abortions.
  • Main Results:

    • An overall pregnancy rate of 84.9% was achieved, with 287 take-home babies.
    • The cumulative pregnancy rate within 5 months reached 86.8%.
    • Pregnancy rates were similar for women over 35 compared to younger patients.
    • Socioeconomic class, duration of infertility, and ovulatory disturbances significantly impacted success rates.

    Conclusions:

    • Artificial insemination with fresh donor semen is a highly effective treatment for infertility, particularly azoospermia.
    • The procedure demonstrates a favorable safety profile with complication rates comparable to the general population.
    • Patient-specific factors, including infertility duration and ovulatory status, are critical determinants of treatment success.
