About this study

Our hypothesis is double insemination will improve pregnancy rates in coh cycles with more than one dominant follicles (>16mm).

Read the detailed description

Metaanalysis for the effects of double IUI demonstrates that effects of this procedure is not different from single IUI. It is known that nearly 25% of coh cycles is evident by monofollicular development.For this reason it is possible that this monofollicular cycles in the studies could decrease the effects of double IUI.

Inclusion criteria:

  1. Patients with unexplained infertility or mild male factor infertility whom admitted to the COH+IUI programme in our infertility unit.
  2. Female age <37 years old.
  3. Baseline FSH <12 mIU/L
  4. Total antral follicle count>6
  5. During the first three cycles of COH+IUI
  6. Minimum 2 follicles >16 mm at the day of HCG.

Primary outcome:

Ongoing pregnancy rates

Secondary outcomes:

The effects of different coh regimens (CC,FSH,CC+FSH)on the outcomes.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 4 study testing Intrauterine insemination (single) and Double intrauterine insemination in people with Infertility, run by Baskent University at 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye).

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 3 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 14 Oct 2009. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye). Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. Some participants in this study may receive a placebo. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 4 studies take place after a treatment is approved, to learn more about its long-term benefits and risks in everyday use.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

ongoing pregnancy rates (time frame: pregnancy >12 weeks of gestation). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT00993902, which also lists 1 linked publication.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 14 Oct 2009.
