Electroejaculation to produce semen from anejaculated males has been employed successfully in conjunction with intrauterine insemination (IUI), in vitro fertilization/embryo transfer, and gamete intrafallopian transfer. We herein report the use of IUI to achieve pregnancy following electroejaculation in a patient with primary idiopathic anejaculation. This 30-year-old patient had a history of anejaculation that was noted after marriage, but had normal sexual potency and occasional nocturnal emission. Electroejaculation was successfully used to obtain semen. The highly motile sperm was recovered from swim up procedure and used for IUI. The 25-year-old wife was given clomiphene citrate and Pergonal for ovulation induction. A triplet pregnancy was achieved. At 26 weeks of gestation, the first triplet was delivered after spontaneous rupture of membrane. We tried to delay delivery of this retained twin pregnancy. Thirty-two days later, the remaining two fetuses were delivered weighing 1100 gm and 900 gm. Ninety-three days after delivery, these two babies were discharged, putting on weight to 3564 gm and 3264 gm. This case represents the first success of using electroejaculation to achieve pregnancy from anejaculated patient in Taiwan. |
