Subjects were placed into treatment groups according to the highest intensity of treatment they received during the study period.
- tubal (e.g., damaged, blocked, removed Fallopian tubes; ectopic pregnancy);
- uterine (e.g., intrauterine adhesions, fibroids);
- ovarian (e.g., diminished ovarian reserve, “advanced maternal age,” elevated FSH);
- ovulatory (e.g., amenorrhea, luteal phase defect, polycystic ovarian disease).
Reflects percent (n) within each treatment (or age) group. Row percentages of treatment groups should sum to 100%.
Treatments prior to study entry are not mutually exclusive, except for “no prior treatment.”
