Summary

The aim of the study to evaluate the possible effect of washing the insemination catheters before intrauterine insemination on the pregnancy outcomes. We know that washing the catheters are already washed in the case of embryo transfer for assisted reproductive techniques. Based on this knowledge, we also constituted the hypothesis which is about the impact of washing the catheter on the gametes and embryos. The pre-washing the catheter before intrauterine insemination may provide higher pregnancy results.
