Chronic endometritis is linked to recurrent pregnancy loss and in vitro fertilization failure. The responsiveness to antibiotics suggests a bacterial cause, however endometriosis could also play a role. This study aimed to compare treatment…
Background and Objectives: Fallopian tubal pathology is a primary risk factor for female infertility, with simple proximal disease and proximal disease extending more distally being more common than pure distal occlusion. Proximal tubal occ…
BACKGROUND: Iron deficiency is a common problem in subfertile women. The influence of iron status on unexplained infertility is unknown. METHODS: In a case-control study, 36 women with unexplained infertility and 36 healthy non-infertile c…
There are limited data on how non-infectious risk factors influence tubal patency in women with subfertility. With hormonal shifts influencing tubal secretions, it has been argued that subfertile women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) …
PURPOSE: To determine whether an increase in cul de sac (CDS) fluid after hysteroscopy is predictive of tubal patency. METHODS: In a prospective clinical cohort study, 115 subfertile women undergoing laparoscopic and hysteroscopic surgery …
STUDY OBJECTIVE: Chronic endometritis (CE), which often presents asymptomatically, is associated with recurrent pregnancy loss, recurrent implantation failure after in vitro fertilization, and endometriosis. Data connecting CE with fallopia…
