| Scientific title | |
| Study objectives | Does a short time of immobilisation (i.e., 15 minutes) after Intra-Uterine Insemination (IUI) have a potential advantage on pregnancy rates, compared to immediate mobilisation and does it outweigh the disadvantage of the extra time and working space it consumes? |
| Ethics approval(s) | Ethics approval received from the local medical ethics committee |
| Health condition(s) or problem(s) studied | Subfertility |
| Intervention | Intra uterine insemination will be performed in spontaneous cycles as well in cycles with Controlled Ovarian Hyper-stimulation (IUI-COH). IUI will be performed in lithotomy position with Trendelenburg tilt. After the insemination has been performed, the patient will, according to their allocation, immediately stand up and go home, or will return to normal supine position, and remain so for 15 minutes. |
