ABSTRACT
Retrograde ejaculation is an uncommon cause of infertility. This condition is easily diagnosed and potentially treatable. Patients and This study included 8 infertile couples with the husband having retrograde ejaculation. Motile spermS were obtained using a method of urinary alkalization by systemic medication in addition to bladder irrigation with an alkaline solution. Fertilization was performed by intrauterine insemination. One pregnancy was obtained. Although the success rate in this study was lower than that reported in the literature, for the individual patient affected by retrograde ejaculation, the technique is simple, inexpensive, and noninvasive and may provide a viable and more easily accessible alternative to the more sophisticated methods in current use in specialized centers
