Summary

Intrauterine insemination (IUI) is one of the most important infertility treatments. Infertility is failure to establish pregnancy (\>12 months) with regularly unprotected sexual intercourse. Post-wash total motile sperm count (TMSC) vaguely defined as a predictor of IUI pregnancy rate. The minimum value required is also not clear. This study aimed to further define the relationship and determine the minimum recommended value to achieve a satisfactory IUI pregnancy rate. Post-wash TMSC is predictive of IUI success. No optimal cut-off could be identified. In conclusion, post-wash TMSC is highly suggested as a quantitative predictor along with others in counseling and informed consent. The recommended threshold value is \>3 x 106.
