Abstract

Objectives: This study aims to assess the Gyenggi-do support project of Korean medical treatment in subfertility in 2018. And we would like to propose a plan to improve the project by analyzing the results of the project. Methods: We got the medical records of 260 participants that personal information was deleted by the association of Korean Medicine in Gyenggi-do.

There was no significant change in blood test before and after the treatment and observation period, and there was no adverse event during the project. After the project, the satisfaction survey was conducted. 84.2% of participants answered that they were satisfied with the result of the treatment. Conclusions: We analyzed the results of Gyenggi-do support project of Korean medical treatment for infertile women in 2017 and 2018.
