ABSTRACT

Objective: The present work pretends to demonstrate the importance of the endometrium in the embryonic implantation and, as a consequence, elevate the pregnancy rates. Material and methods: In the Human Fertility Center were studied 56 patients between January and June 2004, manipulating a total of 98 cycles, with different procedures of low complexity (intrauterine insemination). The first group of patients (n = 26) with a donor sperm (heterologus). The second group, 18 patients with homologus intrauterine insemination (spouse or partner). The third one, didn’t need an assisted procedure, only programmed coitus, in 12 patients. Results: For the first group of 26 patients, treated during 45 cycles with a successful rate of 11.11%; for the second group intrauterine insemination with a previously capacitated sperm (homologus insemination), 18 cases with 24 stimulation cycles, pregnancy rate was of 4.16%; on the last group there were treated 12 patients with 18 stimulation cycles, obtaining results rates of 11.11%. Discussion: The endometrial measure is fundamental; as the pregnancy rate has a direct relation with the endometrial thickness; in achieved pregnancies, the endometrium was deeper than 11 mm.
