Peritoneal fluid 6-keto prostaglandin F1α levels in women with endometriosis

There is considerable evidence to support an association between endometriosis and infertility’. When the endometriosis is extensive and there is anatomical disorganization of the pelvis, such an association would seem to be readily explained on the basis of impaired ovum pick-up. With lesser degrees of endometriosis such an association, if indeed one exists, is much more difficult to explain. Preview Unable to display preview. Download preview PDF.
