The present paper is an epidemiological study carried out on men referred to the infertility clinic of Jahad Daneshgahi of Ahvaz. Of the patients referred to the clinic, 120 men, who were for the first time candidates for receiving IUI and met all the entry requirements of the study based on the initial sperm analysis results on the day of the visit as well as the prepared questionnaire on the day of IUI, were studied.
