Figure 1 Screening and Enrollment of Infertile Couples. ∗ 86 couples chose to discontinue treatment after a median of 4.5 cycles (interquartile range, 3 to 6 cycles) over a median duration of 8 months (interquartile range, 3 to 15 months). † The median duration of follow-up for these couples was 6 months (interquartile range, 3 to 14 months) and was 14 months (interquartile range, 11 to 18 months) among couples who completed follow-up.

Figure 2 Kaplan-Meier Estimates of Cumulative Incidence of Pregnancy Leading to Delivery of a Live Born, According to Treatment Arm. HR = 1.251 (95% CI, 1.00 to 1.56; log rank P = 0.0452). Analysis also used a piecewise Cox proportional hazards model, overall P = 0.0067. Out of 106 couples who had their IUI prior to the date of randomization (but before pregnancy could be determined), 15 (3/50 conventional and 12/56 accelerated) became pregnant. Additionally, 4 couples in the accelerated arm became pregnant before initiating their first treatment cycle. These couples are shown as achieving pregnancy on day of randomization.
