Identify, by Lipidomics approaches, biochemical markers of fertility / infertility in sperm and seminal plasma linking the success or failure of the artificial insemination (IUI)
Analyze lipid profiles in samples of sperm and seminal plasma of three populations:
Establish partnerships between the composition of fatty acids, especially fatty acids polyunsaturated (PUFA) of the omega-3 (w3) series of samples analyzed parameterssemen and results of the IA to identify biochemical markers of fertility.
Assess markers found by checking the increase in the rate of success in the IA.

| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Identify, by Lipidomics approaches, biochemical markers of fertility / infertility sperm and seminal plasma linking the success or failure of the artificial insemination | Levels of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and acid eicosapentaenoic (EPA) in 42 semen samples:
| 18 months |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Descriptive analysis of semen parameters versus DHA and EPA levels | Correlation analysis of seminal variables: sperm count, motility and morphology percent compared to the levels of DHA and EPA obtained. Assuming normal distribution continuous variables, ANOVA test apply. If the normality assumption failed an Kruskal-Wallis test was applied. | 18 months |

Patients who undergo cycles of artificial insemination with own semen. Donor semen samples are intended for cycles of artificial insemination of donor Once the technical and knowing the value of the ßhCG (indicating pregnancy hormone)determined up to a maximum of 4 treatments, the population for this study were divided into three groups
