Abstract: OBJECTIVE: To understand influencing factors on live-birth rates after artificial insemination with husbands-- sperm (AIH). METHODS: The study included 2391 AIH cycles from January 2011 to September 2021 in a reproductive center of the Guangdong Provincial Reproductive Science Institute. The Chi-square and the generalized estimation equation (GEE) were used to analyze factors affecting the live-birth rates. RESULTS: Inseminated women who were ≥40 years old had significantly reduced live birth rates than the younger ones ([OR=0.270,95%CI(0.0840,0.874)]). On day 3 after insemination,menstrual luteinizing hormone (LH) >8.00 IU/L,the ovulation cycle,3 eggs ovulated per cycle and prewash total motile sperm >2×107 significantly increased live birth rates of insemination women [OR=1.734,95%CI(1.167,2.576);OR=1.472,95%CI(1.037,2.090);OR=1.567,95%CI(1.007,2.437);and OR=2.232,95%CI(1.295,3.847),respectively. CONCLUSION: Our data indicate that age of females,day 3 menstrual LH levels,treatment protocols,ovulation numbers per cycle and prewash total motile sperm numbers significantly affected live-birth rates after AIH.
