The role of intrauterine insemination as treatment for specific factor of infertility and for empiric treatment in idiopathic infertility is hereby described. A review of the different prerequisite evaluations is presented: ovarian age, pelvis evaluation and implantation parameters and negative lifestyle (woman weight and toxics). The efficiency of the treatment as evaluated by different studies is described in terms of pregnancy rate and obstetrical and perinatal outcome. In 2004, the treatment of idiopathic infertility by insemination/ovulation induction is challenged in the face of prevention of multiple pregnancies.
