The objective was to evaluate the viral infection effects on infertility treatment outcome in HIV-1 or hepatitis C (HCV) monoinfected infertile serodiscordant couples, in a retrospective case-controlled, university-based study. Clinical pregnancy rate for HIV-1 or HCV infertile serodiscordant couples was not significantly different from that for seronegative controls.

Key Words: HIV, infertility, IVF, ICSI outcome, viral hepatitis C
