[Analysis of female infertility structural factors].
The study was aimed to evaluate, within the population of infertile women, the interrelations between such characteristics as patient's age, duration and type (primary, secondary) of infertility, its etiologic factor as well as the treatment outcome (pregnancy rate). Retrospective analysis was performed in 176 women aged 20-43 years (mean age 29.5 years). Primary infertility was less common in older women (above 35 years). Duration of primary infertility was independent of age, on an average 1.5 years shorter compared to secondary infertility. Participation of all causal factors in the structure of infertility was steady--11.6-20.2%. The most frequent reasons of secondary infertility were unexplained infertility 55.3% and tubal pathology--19.1%. The pregnancy rate was 30% in all treated women. In the studied population of women, pregnancy rate was not significantly influenced by the patients's age, type of infertility and its cause.
