    Abstract:
    The purpose of the present study is to determine the efficacy of an artificial intrauterine insemination program with frozen donor sperm and controlled ovarian hyperstimulation as an alternative therapy for infertility cause by hypergonadotropic azoospermia. Two hundred forty three insemination cycles with frozen donor sperm were analyzed. Clomiphene citrate, pure FSH, recombinant FSH or human menopausal gonadotropins were utilized for ovulation induction; human corionic gonadotropin (hCG), 10,000 IU, was administered when one or more dominant follicles with diameter > or = 16 mm were present; intrauterine insemination was performed 36 hours after the hCG injection. The pregnancy rate per cycle was 19.9%, and the cumulative pregnancy rate was 59.3%. It is concluded that intrauterine insemination with frozen donor sperm and ovulation induction is a good alternative for male factor infertility with no available treatment.
