|

Objectives: This study aims to assess the subfertility support project of Korean medicine in Gyeonggi-do.
Methods: A total of 231 women (36.84±3.79 yrs) out of 361 applicants completed the treatment in this study. The copies of the medical records and study-related documents were provided by the association of Korean Medicine in Gyeonggi-do, in which the personal information was discarded. Descriptive analysis and inferential statistics (e.g., Mann-Whitney U test, Paired t-test, Wilcoxon signed rank test, & logistic regression) were applied to examine the statistical differences between groups and before/after treatments utilizing SPSS 23. All Type I errors (α) for the statistical significance were set at .05
Results: After the treatment, 11.3% of participants became pregnant spontaneously. There was no significant change in blood tests before and after the treatment and the observation period. Also there was no adverse event during the project. After the project, the satisfaction survey was conducted, and 87.5% of participants were satisfied with the project.
Conclusions: The findings of this study proved the efficacy of Korean medical treatment for infertile women.
