Abstract]
Background: The greatest cause of mortality for women in the world is atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). Aim: interested in Finding out the relationship generated between atherosclerosis in infertile women by conducting a study in Iraq. Patients and methods: This paper was presented as a cross-sectional study to find out the relationship generated between atherosclerosis in infertile women by conducting a study in Iraq where it contained into 66 patients which collect from different hospitals in Iraq from 17th June 2021 to 27th August 2022. To follow up of the methodology, this study was had into two groups which are the patients’ group have, 36 patients who present as women have infertile, while the second group represents women don’t have infertile with 30 cases. This study was designed and simulated of data outcomes by the SPSS program. Results and Discussion: our results complement a small study that used data which found that women with a history of infertility had a 7.58% higher risk of dying from cardiovascular disease (5 of 36 cases; median age, 38 years); they also compare with a Swedish study of a cohort of 80,000 women (median age, 50 years), in which infertility was linked to a 20% higher risk of incident cardiovascular disease compared with women without a history of infertility. Conclusion: In conclusion, we demonstrate that infertility overall was marginally linked with the risk of ASCVD among a varied cohort of women tracked for over two decades. Nevertheless, more severe phenotypes with infertility among women give substantial insight into a woman’s cardiovascular health. Women with infertility who did not give birth to a live child or who experienced a miscarriage had a noticeably greater risk of ASCVD than women without infertility. Our results indicate that the reproductive years of a woman may offer a special opportunity for the early identification and management of ASCVD risk factors because infertility, as well as pregnancy loss, happens during this time.
