Infertility of unknown origin, idiopathic or without apparent cause, accounts for 20% of infertility cases in Spain. Those patients who find themselves in this situation will start with assisted reproduction techniques such as programmed coitus and artificial insemination (AI).

In this way, the pregnancy rate of IVF is higher than that of AI or programmed intercourse.
