Medical records were abstracted for baseline characteristics, types of infertility, details of HSG findings, and subsequent evaluations. A 95% confidence interval (CI) was calculated to demonstrate the precision of data. Logistic regression model was used to determine an independent effect of variables.</p><p><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Results:</span></strong> Overall, 589 women were reviewed (mean age 32.9±5.0 years).<strong> </strong>Secondary infertility was noted in 163 (27.67%) women. Abnormal HSG was noted in 227 (38.54%; 95% CI, 34.59-42.60) women. The most common abnormal HSG findings were tubal occlusion and hydrosalpinx. When adjusted with patients’ age, women with secondary infertility carried a higher risk of having abnormal HSG finding compared to those with primary infertility (an adjusted odds ratio, 2.44; 95% CI, 1.68-3.554).</p><p><strong><span style="text-decoration: underline;">Conclusion:</span></strong> Rate of HSG findings among infertile women in our setting was approximately 40%. Type of infertility was independently associated with abnormal HSG findings.</p>}, number={5}, journal={Srinagarind Medical Journal}, author={Nampakdianan, Kwanruetai and Kietpeerakool, Chumnan and Chongpensuklert, Yaowapa}, year={2015}, month={Oct.}, pages={74} }
