Association Between Type of Infertility and Live Birth in Couples With a Single Intrauterine Insemination Resulting in Pregnancy: A Propensity Score Matching Cohort Study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Few studies have described the relationship between the type of infertility and live birth in patients treated with intrauterine insemination (IUI). We focused on this issue and attempted to explore it.

Methods

This retrospective study enrolled 2,256 infertile patients who underwent their first IUI cycle and were subsequently diagnosed with a clinical pregnancy at Ji'an Women and Child Health Care Hospital between 2007 and 2018. Inductees were divided into primary infertility (1,680 patients) and secondary infertility groups (876 patients). Following 1:1 propensity score matching to obtain balanced data, the COX proportional hazards model, landmark analysis, and subgroup analysis were used to assess the association between infertility types and live birth rates.
