    Area of Science:

    • Reproductive Medicine
    • Infertility Treatment
    • Public Health

    Background:

    • Female factor infertility is a significant concern in many populations.
    • Artificial Insemination by Donor (AID) is a key assisted reproductive technology.
    • Understanding AID efficacy in diverse settings is crucial for reproductive health.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To report the outcomes of Artificial Insemination by Donor (AID) in a Lagos population.
    • To assess the conception rate and effectiveness of AID.
    • To identify challenges in AID practice within the local context.

    Main Methods:

    • Retrospective analysis of 35 AID procedures performed on 31 patients.
    • Calculation of cumulative conception rates over an 8-month period.
    • Inclusion of patients with and without female factor infertility.

    Main Results:

    • A cumulative conception rate of 71% was achieved at 8 months.
    • Twenty-five pregnancies resulted from 35 AID attempts.
    • Eleven patients with female factors conceived, demonstrating AID's utility in such cases.

    Conclusions:

    • Artificial Insemination by Donor (AID) is an effective treatment for infertility, including cases with female factors.
    • Successful AID outcomes were observed in the Lagos population.
    • Specific challenges in implementing AID services in Lagos require attention and potential solutions.
