The aim of this study is to estimate the prevalence of subfecundity and determine its correlates. In this retrospective study 1576 women who attended to 6 maternity hospitals in Tabriz for delivery in September 2004 were interviewed face -to- face. The data which was collected includes lifestyle, Time-to-Pregnancy, fertility history, as well as demographic characteristics. Chi square test and independence t-test was used for statistical analysis by using SPSS software. The results show that 17.5 (CI95%: 15.2-19.8%)of cases are subfecund. Women with low education had a higher prevalence of subfecundity. There is no significant association between lifestyle, occupation and socio-economic status of subjects, with subfecundity (p>0.05). Although the prevalence of subfecundity in this study is the same as other countries. But more research is needed to bring about a clear understanding of the effect of lifestyle on subfecundity in Iran. ER -
