Abstract

Amaç
İnfertilite, reprodüktif dönemdeki çiftlerin herhangi doğum
kontrol yöntemi kullanmaksızın bir yıl düzenli cinsel
ilişkiye rağmen gebelik durumunun sağlanamamasıdır.
Bu çalışmada spontan gebe kalan fertil hastalar
ile infertilite tanısı nedeniyle tedavi gören infertil kadın
hastalar arasında kan gruplarının karşılaştırılması
amaçlanmıştır.
Gereç ve Yöntem
Çalışmamız, Ocak 2015-Ocak 2023 yılları arasında
Süleyman Demirel Üniversitesi Kadın Hastalıkları Doğum
Anabilim Dalı polikliniğine rutin gebelik takibi için
başvuran ve spontan gebe kalan 304 fertil hasta ile
infertilite tanısı alarak Süleyman Demirel Üniversitesi
Üremeye Yardımcı Tedavi (ÜYTE) Merkezi’nde tedavi
alan 304 infertil olmak üzere toplam 608 hastanın kan
grupları ve demografik verilerinin istatistiksel olarak
değerlendirilmesini içermektedir.
Bulgular
Fertil grupta yer alan gönüllülerin yaş ortalaması
30,68±4,70 hesaplanırken, infertil gruptaki gönüllülerin
yaş ortalaması ise 32,50±5,35 olarak hesaplanmıştır.
Fertil ve infertil grupta yer alan gönüllülerin kan grupları
A kan grubunun her iki grupta da baskın olduğu ve
bunu sırasıyla 0, B ve AB kan gruplarının izlediği tespit
edilmiştir. Gruplar eğitim durumlarına göre karşılaştırıldığında,
infertil gruptaki hastaların büyük çoğunluğunun
lisans veya lisansüstü seviyede eğitim aldığı tespit
edilmiştir. Gruplar arasındaki mesleki dağılımlara göre
gelir düzeylerine ait veriler ise düşük, orta ve yüksek
gelir düzeyi olmak üzere üç kategoride değerlendirilmiştir.
Buna göre her iki grupta da katılımcılarının büyük
çoğunluğunun düşük gelir düzeyine sahip olduğu
saptanmıştır.
Sonuç
İnfertilite genetik, çevre, yaşam tarzı ve sağlık gibi çeşitli
faktörlerin bir araya gelmesiyle ortaya çıkan çok
faktörlü bir durumdur. İnfertilite prevalansının yaşla
orantılı olarak arttığı ve kan grubu dağılımlarının infertilite
üzerinden doğrudan bir etkisinin olmadığı tespit
edilmiştir.

ARE BLOOD GROUPS EFFECTIVE IN INFERTILITY? EVALUATION OF 8-YEAR DATA FROM A TERTIARY CENTER

Year 2023, Volume: 30 Issue: 3, 484 - 490, 23.09.2023

Abstract

Objective
The aim is to compare blood groups between spontaneously
pregnant fertile patients and infertile female
patients undergoing treatment for infertility diagnosis
is defined as the failure to achieve pregnancy despite
regular unprotected sexual intercourse for one year
during the reproductive period without using any contraceptive
method.
Material and Method
Our study includes statistically evaluating the blood
groups and demographic data of a total of 608 patients,
including 304 fertile patients who presented for
routine pregnancy follow-up at the Department of Obstetrics
and Gynecology, Süleyman Demirel University,
between January 2015 and January 2023, and 304
infertile patients receiving treatment at the Süleyman
Demirel University Assisted Reproductive Techniques
(ART) Center.
Results
The mean age of the volunteers in the fertile group
was calculated as 30.68±4.70, while the mean age of
the volunteers in the infertile group was 32.50±5.35.
Blood group A was found to be dominant in both the
fertile and infertile groups, followed by blood groups
O, B, and AB. When compared based on education,
it was determined that the majority of patients in the
infertile group had received undergraduate or postgraduate
education. Income levels were categorized as
low, medium, and high income based on occupational
distributions in both groups, revealing that the majority
of participants in both groups had a low-income level.
Conclusion
Infertility is a multifactorial condition resulting from a
combination of various factors such as genetics, environment,
lifestyle, and health. The prevalence of infertility
increases with age, and blood group distribution
does not have a direct impact on infertility.
