Abstract

Infertility is defined as difficulty in conceiving children after regular and unprotected coitus for at least one year. Many investigative measures are available now a day to identify the cause of infertility so clinician can assess the chance of achieving pregnancy in couples. Morphology of endometrium is very useful indicator of ovarian function. Our study aims to see the different pattern of endometrium histologically in female infertility patient. We tried to assess the significance anovulatory cycle and incidence of tuberculous endometritis. Study was done in pathology department of UPUMS, Saifai, Etawah. Eighty-four (84) cases of primary and secondary infertility were included in this study. Endometrial biopsy tissues were processed and stained with hematoxylin and eosin stain according to the standard procedure. Out of 84 cases 48(57%) were of primary infertility and 36 (42.85%) were of secondary infertility. Majority of the infertility patient fell in age group of 21 to 30 years. Out of 84 cases 42 (50%) cases showed proliferative endometrium and 33(39.2%) cases showed secretory endometrium. Tuberculous endometritis seen in 2 (2.3%) cases. In present study percentage of anovulatory endometrium was 52.5%, endometrial biopsy is cost-effective, safe and efficient diagnostic tool in cases of both primary and secondary infertility.
