Abstract

Artificial insemination with husband's semen is one of the treatments in cases of male infertility. A technique for swim-up and washing sperm is described. A special device was used for introduction of sperm into the uterus. Sperm density after treatment by swim-up and washing of sperm was lower than in the pretreatment specimens, but sperm motility, motile sperm count, and conception rate after treatment were higher.
