Pregnancy after direct intraperitoneal insemination.
Direct intraperitoneal insemination (DIPI) and superovulation are simple procedures which may together represent a good alternative to gamete intra-Fallopian transfer (GIFT) in infertile women with patent Fallopian tubes. In the present study, pregnancy occurred in 25 of 96 couples (26%) and six (24%) of these aborted. The pregnancy rate for all cycles was 19.6% and multiple pregnancies were found in six of 25 (24%) patients. We observed no ectopic pregnancy. The combination of these techniques is concluded to be useful in achieving pregnancy in infertile women with patient Fallopian tubes.
