Study Design: In this retrospective cohort study, a total of 202 gonadotropin-IUI cycles were analyzed between January 2017 and April 2019. Demographic features, cycle outcomes and sperm parameters were compared between pregnant (n = 44) and non-pregnant groups (n = 158). Logistic regression analysis was performed to identify factors that could predict a pregnancy. Results: The clinical pregnancy rate was calculated as 21.8% in the whole group. Logistic regression identified four significant factors in predicting the IUI success rates; the etiology of infertility (OR:0.208; 95% CI: 0.079-0.547, P:0.001), increased TPMSC (OR:1.027; 95% CI:1.001-1.053; P:0.047), endometrial thickness (OR:1.346; 95% CI:1.120-1.617; P:0.002) and decreased duration of infertility (OR:0.951; 95% CI: 0.928-0.975, P<0.001) which were the most significant risk factors for pregnancy. Conclusion: Among various parameters analyzed in this study, infertility etiology, infertility duration, endometrial thickness and post-washed total progressive motile sperm count found to be the most important prognostic factors in predicting successful outcome of IUI.}, number={4}, publisher={T.C.
