On the other hand, in women who have had previous unsuccessful treatment, IVF achieves a live birth rate approximately 2–3 times greater than ovarian stimulation combined with IUI. [8] IUI and ICI has higher pregnancy rates when combined with ovarian stimulation in couples with unexplained infertility, for IUI being 13% unstimulated and 15% ...
IUI is an economic option for same-sex couples and can be done without the use of medication. [36] According to a study from 2021, lesbian women undergoing IUI had an average clinical pregnancy rate of 13.2% per cycle and 42.2% success rate giving the average number of cycles at 3.6. [37]
[1] An unsuccessful implantation can result from problems with the mother or with the embryo. It is essential that the mother and embryo are able to communicate with each other during all stages of pregnancy, and an absence of this communication can lead to an unsuccessful implantation and a further unsuccessful pregnancy.

The time with the highest likelihood of pregnancy resulting from sexual intercourse covers the menstrual cycle time from some 5 days before until 1 to 2 days after ovulation. [10] In a 28‑day cycle with a 14‑day luteal phase, this corresponds to the second and the beginning of the third week.
Implantation is the first stage of gestation, and, when successful, the female is considered to be pregnant. [3] An implanted embryo is detected by the presence of increased levels of human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) in a pregnancy test. [3] The implanted embryo will receive oxygen and nutrients in order to grow.

Thus, if a clomiphene treatment has a chance to establish a pregnancy in 8% of cycles and costs $800, the expected cost is $9,700 to establish a pregnancy, compared to an IVF cycle (cycle fecundity 40%) with a corresponding expected cost of $48,300 ($19,300 × 40%). [citation needed]
