Abstract
Infertility is defined as inability of couple to achieve conception after one year of unprotected coitus. The purpose of investigation is to assess chance of achieving pregnancy and to identify treatable factors. In spite of many investigatory tools available, endometrial histology is a sensitive indicator of ovarian function. Aim of the study is to determine cause of infertility by morphological pattern of endometrium, to assess importance of luteal phase defect and to determine incidence of Tuberculous endometritis as an etiological factor. Study was carried out in the Pathology Dept. M.G.M.Medical college, Jamshedpur. The study included 79 endometrial biopsies wth complaint of infertility. Routine histopathological processing and staining was done with hematoxylin and eosin. Out of 73 cases of primary infertility, 21.92% were in proliferative phase, 65.75%were in secretory phase. Luteal phase defect was found in 8.22% and just 1.37% cases were reported as tuberculous endometritis. In developing countries like India, histopathological study of endometrium forms an important , safe, and cheaper diagnostic tool in cases of primary and secondary infertility where expensive, immunological and hormonal assays are not easily available or affordable.
