[Artificial insemination with donor semen in gynaecological office practice (author's transl)]. 1981

H W Kupka

Artificial insemination with donor semen (AID) is by no means rare in present gynaecological office practice. When fresh semen is used the success rate is satisfactory. 64 women were treated, 47 patients became pregnant. 4 women conceived twice. There were 3 pairs of twins in 51 pregnancies. Of the 64 treated women 3 had an early abortion. One of these patients conceived a second time and had a term delivery of a healthy infant. The abortion rate was around 4% and therefore much less than the comparable abortion rate of 13.5% in series with frozen semen. The 47 mothers had 51 healthy newborns within 66 months. The success rate was approximately 75% for the 48 term pregnancies in the 64 treated patients. This success rate is better than that quoted by Bergman of 38%. The mean age of all pregnant women was 30.02 years. The mean age of women which required additional hormonal therapy was 32.09 years, the mean age of pregnant women without hormonal therapy was 28.45 years.
