Objectives: The purpose of this study is to report the results of Korean medicine treatment infertility support program in Chungcheongnam-do in 2019.
Methods: Participants of Korean medicine treatment infertility support program were provided with Korean herbal medicine, acupuncture and moxibustion for 3 months and followed up for 3 months after the treatments. A total of 115 women out of 125 applicants completed the treatment, and 106 participants' data was collected. The data containing pregnancy rates, characteristics of subjects, treatments, and satisfaction of the program were analyzed.

There were no significant differences in factors such as age, body mass index (BMI), social history, infertility period, and history of infertility treatment between pregnant and non-pregnant groups except smoking. Some of the subjects reported positive changes in the menstrual conditions such as cycle, volume and menstrual pain. More than 80% of the subjects answered that they were satisfied with the program in the survey questionnaire.
