Abstract
Intrauterine insemination (IUI), it is a type of artificial insemination, used to treat infertility by which the Sperm that have been prepared and placed directly into the woman’s uterus around the time of ovulation. The main purpose of this procedure is to enable the sperm to swim into the fallopian tubes and fertilize a ready egg in order to lead to a natural pregnancy. IUI can be coordinated with the normal cycle with fertility or medications depending on the reasons for infertility The IUI outcome still low about 20-25% so adding number of biochemical factors to the culture medium which are essential to regulate the fertility potential of spermatozoa, for example, platelet-activating factor (PAF) which is a unique and novel signaling phospholipid that has multiple biologic properties have been tried. To determine the effect of adding the PAF into the culture medium to prepare and activate the semen samples of non-male factor infertility (normal semen analyses). This study was carried out in the Infertility Unit, AL-Hussein Teaching Hospital, Al-Nassirya City, through the period from 30th of October 2020 till 17th of April 2021. The study included thirty couples who are complaining from infertility (they failed to conceive after one year at least of regular unprotected intercourse. The frequency distribution of enrolled infertile men with normozoospermia Baseline characteristics of seminal fluid analysis of males with normozoospermia those with PAF are Semen volume ml, pH, Sperm concentration before million/ml, Sperm motility %, morphologically normal sperm %, were Mean ±SD (3.10 ±1.23, 7.39 ±0.03, 46.67 ±15.31, 1.33 ±3.52, 36.00 ±5.07) respectively. Certain sperm parameters were highly improved after in vitro activation by PAF medium of Normozoospermic samples.
