This retrospective cross-sectional study analyzed laparoscopic findings in 110 infertile women attending the Infertility unit of Bangabandhu Sheikh Mujib Medical University. The authors report that 22.7% had endometriosis and 16.4% had varying degrees of adhesion in the pouch of Douglas, alongside high rates of tubal pathology with 26.4% unilateral tubal block and 28.2% bilateral tubal block. The study’s main limitation is its retrospective design and single-center setting based on available records. This paper is centrally about endometriosis — it reports laparoscopic prevalence of endometriosis among infertile women presenting for infertility workup.

Method: We had a retrospective cross-sectional study on Japaroscopic findings of 110 women. Results: Out of all patients 22.7% women had endometriosis. Various degrees of adhesion of pouch of Douglus was present in 16.4 %. Regarding tubal pate:1cy , 26.4% had unilateral block and 28.2% had bilateral block.
