Abstract
Aims:This study is aimed at determining the prognostic factors influencing successful pregnancy following intrauterine insemination (IUI).Settings and design:Retrospective analysis.Materials and Methods:A total of 2123 cycles undergone by 871 couples during the period of 5 years (2011–2015) were retrospectively studied.Statistical Analysis Used:Each of the factors was compared with pregnancy outcome (PO) using statistical analysis with a confidence interval of 95% in SPSS software version 19. Chi-square test and logistic regression analysis method were used to determine the significance of each factor with the PO.Results:Among the various factors included in our study population, male habits (P = 0.004), male occupational environment (P = 0.025), male age (P = 0.002), and female age (P = 0.001) were found to significantly influence the PO following IUI.Conclusion:Our results indicate that avoiding smoking and alcohol consuming prior and during the IUI treatment along with working in low-heat-generating environment might lead to better success following the treatment.
