The effect of endometrial scratching on pregnancy rate after failed intrauterine insemination: a randomised controlled trial

Endometrial injury (ES) has been suggested as intervention to increase probability of pregnancy in women undergoing assisted reproductive technologies. Majority of studies reported that ES improves outcome in Invitro fertilisation,Intrauterine Insemination(IUI) and natural conceptions: however, the size and quality of studies are poor which questions the presence of any beneficial effect. The present study was done to evaluate the effect of endometrial scratching on pregnancy rate after previous failed Intrauterine Insemination and to assess the pain and bleeding following the procedure.
