Comparison of the outcome between cycles stimulated with r-FSH or clomiphene citrate in patients undergoing intrauterine insemination: Analysis of 130 cycles

Abstract

Aim: The best ovulation induction (OI) protocol in intrauterine insemination (IUI) cycles is still unknown. The aim of this retrospective study was to investigate the effects of two different OI protocols, r-FSH and clomiphene citrate (CC), on the pregnancy rates in IUI cycles. Materials and Methods: One hundred and thirty cycles were retrospectively evaluated in patients who underwent IUI with fresh sperm from their husbands. The study included two treatment arms; the groups consisted of 35 treatment cycles with r-FSH + IUI and 95 treatment cycles with CC + IUI, respectively. The two groups were compared in terms of various clinical and laboratory parameters. Results: The pregnancy rates in r-FSH and CC groups were 17.1% and 10.5%, respectively, and no statistical difference was found (p=0.368). The endometrial thickness (ET) on the day of hCG trigger was less in the CC group (p
